Vieux Chateau Certan 2021

Pomerol
Topwein des Jahrgangs
Der Wein des Jahrganges? Das ist eine Stilfrage. Für uns persönlich jedenfalls zählt VCC zu den Top-5 des Jahrganges. Die Familie Thienpont schafft es Jahr für Jahr einen derart burgundischen und feinen, dabei ausdrucksstarken Pomerol zu vinifizieren, dass es einem die Sprache verschlägt. Derart präzise gezeichnet, derart komplex, dabei so enorm reife Frucht, diese aber nicht überbordend, solche Tannine, diese aber feisnt gewoben. Was soll man sagen? 67% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 3% Cabernet Sauvignon formen etwas, das man schwer in Worte fassen kann. Ein Wein zum Niederknien.

WEINWISSER: "77 % Merlot, 20 % CF, 3 % Cabernet Sauvignon, pH 3.63, 13,2 Vol.-%, 38 hl/ha. Betörendes Bouquet, frischgepflückte schwarze Johannisbeere, Heidelbeergelee und Holundersaft, dahinter betörendes Veilchenparfüm, zarte Milchschokolade und rote Johannisbeerdrops. Am subtilen Gaumen mit seidiger Textur, magischer Rasse, unglaublicher Präzision, stützendem Graphit und trainiertem Körper. Im konzentrierten Finale mit einem energiegeladenen Zug, dynamisch, schwarzbeerige Konturen, Himbeermark und erhabene Adstringenz. Einer der Besten am Rechten Ufer. Der Jahrgang wird von Alexandré mit «aromatic, fresh & flavoursome», beschrieben."

VINUM: "Sehr stiltreuer, VCC, präzise gezeichnet, mit betörendem aromatischen Potential, schlank, Tannin mit Schliff, subtile Eleganz trotz der Dichte: einmalig, stilvoll, herrlich."

WINE ENTHUSIAST: "96–98. Barrel Sample. The wine has freshness and a fine perfume that highlights the structure. There is a lovely velvet character to this wine, enhanced by the structure from the 20% Cabernet Franc in the blend. It is light, packed with fruit, beautifully aromatic."

JAMES SUCKLING: "Medium to full body with a supple, textured and firm tannin structure. Velvety and perfumed with fragrant notes of flowers, cloves, plums and raspberries. Broad and layered. Very supple and evolving. Opens on the palate. 77% merlot, 20% cabernet franc and 3% cabernet sauvignon."

DECANTER: "Ripe juicy strawberry, this has a gorgeous intensity on the nose, really fragrant and expressive, in a rich deep, heavily-scented way. You get the ripeness here with smooth, silky tannins giving depth and intensity on the palate. Succulent with a sharpness, that hit of freshLy picked strawberry and cherry juice - electric and bright with tension and direction. It’s softly spoken in one way, so quietly confident, yet showing so much detail in another, saying; 'looking at how charming I can be'. It has freshness and tension - ‘a cool climate VCC’ said Alexandre Thienpont. Bright acidity through delivered gracefully and sensitively with a gentle persistence. I love the delicacy, it has body no doubt, but it’s the detail that’s so captivating. A wonderful wine and one of the best from Pomerol in 2021."

FALSTAFF: "Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Dunkelbeerig im Duft, sehr klar, sehr reif. Florale Noten, Baumharz. Im Mund seidig und füllig, weich grundiert, mürb-körniges Tannin ohne Grüntöne, sehr dicht, dennoch mild wirkend, viel Saftigkeit, große Homogenität und Länge, feinfruchtig begleitet. Ein makellos reif gelesener Charmeur mit Tiefe und unglaublicher Eleganz."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "A blend of 77% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2021 Vieux Château Certan wafts from the glass with lovely aromas of violets, rose petals, sweet wild berries, exotic spices, orange rind and smoke. Medium to full-bodied, supple and enveloping, it's an elegant, fleshy wine with a bright core of fruit, ultra-refined tannins and a precise, saline finish. Despite its almost Burgundian finesse, this Pomerol's remarkably penetrating, perfumed finish gives the lie to any notion that it's in any way lacking in intensity of flavor. As is almost invariably the case, Vieux Château Certan is one of the finest wines of the appellation this year."

LISA PERROTTI-BROWN: "The 2021 Vieux Chateau Certan is composed of 77% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep garnet-purple colored, it slowly grows on the nose to reveal vibrant, perfumed notes of black raspberries, fresh black plums, and redcurrant jelly, plus suggestions of cast-iron pan, lilacs, rose oil, cinnamon stick, and aniseed with a waft of forest floor. The medium-bodied palate is very tightly wound, featuring loads of layers of red and black fruits intertwined with mineral sparks, supported by very fine-grained tannins and bold freshness, finishing on a lingering fragrant earth note. A wine that shimmers from start to finish. The alcohol is 13.3% and the pH is 3.62."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Dark ruby in color, the perfume kicks off with lilacs, violets, graphite, nutmeg, spice, plums and black cherry nuances. On the palate, the wine is fresh, vibrant, crisp, chewy and long. The salty touch of minerality in the endnote adds to all the sweet, dark red pit fruits. Refined, elegant and classic, (but in a good way) there is length, purity, tension and energy in the finish, with just a hint of spice too. The wine blends 77% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13.2% ABV. The harvest took place September 24-September - October 6. Yields were 38 hectoliters per hectare. Drink from 2026-2049."

JEB DUNNUCK: "The 2021 Vieux Château Certan is another pure, elegant Pomerol with plenty to love. Giving up a very pretty, precision, and medium-bodied style, it has lots of pure blue fruits, notes of spring flowers and graphite, finely polished tannins, and a great finish. It shows the cooler, fresher style of the vintage but has incredible purity and certainly brings good intensity. The tannins here are also terrific. The blend is 77% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, all of which is still resting in 65% new French oak."

JANCIS ROBINSON: "Rich, racy and aromatic with floral notes to the fore. Old-vine intensity, something not always evident this year. Smooth, elegant texture with fine, persistent tannins. Sweetness to the fruit on attack then fresh and driven on the finish. Good potential. (JL)"
