2014 Vieux Château Certan

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Saturday, February 24, 2024 - Decanted over 5 hours, plus saved an extra glass for the next day. First day was fruit and oak, but was ever evolving no single sip was the same, fruit was slightly brambly, bit of chocolate and vanilla, tannic and low acid with a long finish, still had a very nice mouthfeel. Felt like this was much more fruit forward on day 2, no vanilla or chocolate with more red fruited strawberry and cassis, was very nice, preferred it on day 2, will sit on my remaining bottles at least another 5 years. This was my first time having the grand vin and it did not disappoint as it was very nice, one of those special wines that really evolves a lot as you drink it and is hard to describe.
