Vieux Château Certan, Pomerol 2023 En Primeur - Case of 6
FRANCE
There’s something about VCC. You taste in the calm and tranquility of the chai, only the quiet voice of Alexandre Thienpont breaking the silence, describing a wine that is invariably awesome. Thus it is was again in 2023. Alexandre describes it as classic in the true sense of what Pomerol should produce. The Merlot is perfect, but enhanced by the addition of Cabernet Franc to give an extra dimension. There is sweet ripeness, density, texture, length all in perfect harmony. You leave, quietly, in awe at what you are still tasting. It is a profound experience and you reflect, yet again, that you have enjoyed one of the wines of the vintage. 5-15+ years.

About En Primeur
Lying Abroad/En Primeur/In Bond Wines
Wines offered ‘Lying Abroad’ or ‘En Primeur’ provide a good way to secure some of the most sought after wines at opening prices. In addition we ensure it is the cheapest way to buy favourite mid-priced wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Rhône, so please ask us for our offers or check our website for latest reports. Prices are clearly marked in our sales literature and are exclusive of duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT. Shipment of claret and Port normally takes place around 30 months after the vintage, burgundy and Rhône usually more quickly. A second invoice for the duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT on the value of the wine is charged at the time of shipment - view current duty rates. There are no further charges for deliveries to a UK mainland home or work address. Your Lying Abroad purchases are covered under The Bunch Code of Practice which can be sent on request or viewed here.
