Description
Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Antonio Galloni
The 2015 La Gravette de Certan is a stellar second wine that shows just how fabulous the vintage is in Pomerol. Inky plum, blueberry, mint, lavender and spice notes give the Gravette its dark, sumptuous personality. La Gravette, Vieux Château Certan's second wine, emerges mostly from the younger vines on the property. Drink it over the next 10-20 years.

About the Producer
The second Wine of the estate La Gravette de Certan is made subsequent to the blending tastings of Vieux Château Certan. Produced from young vines and a contrast to the First Wine, La Gravette de Certan is a wine with outstanding precision that faithfully mirrors the pedigree of the vineyard. It is a quote «Although it has undeniable similarities to its superior, it offers a more accessible character in its youth.».
