Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
I have been fortunate enough to taste the legendary 1928 Vieux Chateau Certan twice before, though the previous occasion was almost a decade again in Los Angeles. Served blind, this example reaffirmed its status as a Pomerol undiminished by the passing decade. If anything, the bouquet was even more vigorous than the ones served in L.A., very pure with cigar box scents mixed with briary, iris and even a hint of Indian ink. The palate has weight in the mouth - astonishing after so many years. There is certainly good grip and as I found previously, the Cabernet components appear more conspicuous than coeval vintages. There is a symmetry about this Pomerol, one brilliantly defined with black tea and tobacco interlacing the vestige of black fruit on the finish, with just a hint of volatile acidity on the aftertaste. Utterly sublime, bottles with sound provenance will last a good few more years. Tasted October 2016.
