La Gravette De Certan Pomerol 2019 750ml

Given the fame of Vieux Château Certan, one of Bordeaux’s most recognizable brands, the opportunity to obtain a wine that embodies the estate’s impressive history without incurring a high price tag should not be passed up. A case of this excellent second wine is a complete no-brainer. It is criminally underappreciated yet has remarkable freshness and purity of fruit.

The Gravette has a rich purple colour with a delightful scent of liquorice, raspberries, cherries, and forest foliage. The wine has a round, generous body and nice balance on the palate. With its main, fruity character, this wine is best appreciated young and served slightly chilled. An exquisite Pomerol fit for a prestigious estate.

Excellent with a variety of traditional meat meals, including roast chicken, roasted, braised, and grilled dishes, as well as veal, hog, beef, lamb, duck, and game. Asian cuisine, substantial fish dishes like tuna, pasta, and a variety of hard and soft cheeses pair well with Vieux Chateau Certan. A fine estate-worthy pomerol.
