Château Certan de May 2007
£92.89 (Inc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / North Ireland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
I liked this wine better from cask as it appears to have dried out quickly, which is a danger with many of these 2007s. Currently, the wine is very tannic, the extraction seems pushed, and the fruit appears to have fallen out. Nevertheless, there are attractive plum, earth, and spice characteristics in the complex aromatics, but lean, austere tannins kick in in the mouth. It has not turned out as well as I had hoped.
