The 2009's nearly 14% natural alcohol, exquisite ripeness, and incredible complex bouquet of Asian spices, fruitcake, licorice, smoke, blackberries and black currants are to die for. A blend of 84% Merlot and the rest equal parts Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, it possesses a viscous texture as well as a freshness and vibrancy that are remarkable given the wine’s weight, richness and potential massiveness. This extraordinary effort is one of the finest Vieux Chateau Certans made over the last sixty years. It will undoubtedly shut down in bottle, requiring a decade or more of cellaring. It should keep for 50 years thereafter. Proprietor Thienpont thinks it is a modern day version of the 1948. As I wrote in my barrel tasting notes, the 2009 ranks alongside four of the legendary vintages of Vieux Chateau Certan’s ancient past, 1945, 1947, 1948 and 1950. It is undoubtedly a cleaner wine than those older vintages, and the selection process under proprietor Alexandre Thienpont was far more severe in 2009 than it would have been sixty years ago.

此款葡萄酒由 Merlot、Cabernet Sauvignon 和 Cabernet Franc 混釀而成，質(zhì)地如絲般柔滑精致，帶有豐富迷人的李子、櫻桃白蘭地和紅醋栗的風(fēng)味，并微微伴有柔軟的烤香草和雪松的味道。此外，此酒還散發(fā)著濃郁的土壤、雪茄煙草和鐵的氣味，余味中這些濃郁的氣味絲毫不減。不需要太久，這些氣味和風(fēng)味就會完全融合，到時此酒將會具有更多的大酒的特點。此酒在 2018 年至 2035 年間飲用最佳。產(chǎn)量：4,300 箱。
