title: Vieux Château Certan 2010  Saint-Émilion
description: A beautiful, velvety smooth wine, unusually for Vieux Château Certan dominated by Merlot. It has tannin, to be sure, but these are conveyed through the ripe fruit and the sweetness of the blackberry flavors. It is opulent, although never too much, retaining its elegance. Age for many years.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
