WineSaint

Fleshy and approachable, with dark cherry, herbs and earthy spices flowing across a rounded, medium-bodied frame. The vintage's generous ripeness shows clearly, but the wine feels more like a solid Right Bank example than the distinctive expression VCC typically delivers. Accessible now but lacks the estate's usual refinement.

One of Pomerol's oldest and most respected estates, Vieux Château Certan sits at the plateau's heart and has long distinguished itself by leaning harder on Cabernet Franc than most of its neighbours.
