Vieux Château Certan--Vintage 1990
Pomerol
Tasting note: This was a very strong vintage for Vieux Château Certan. The 1990 reveals a deep garnet colour to the rim along with a sweet bouquet of charcoal, liquorice, roasted herbs, forest floor, and a meaty, truffle-like scent. A fleshy, full-bodied wine with exceptionally low acidity, plenty of melted tannin, and a long, layered finish, this beauty is close to full maturity, but it is in no danger of falling apart. It should keep for another 15+ years. Robert Parker Wine Advocate 183 June 2009
