Killer tasting at Spectrum last week: Ponsot, 82 Certan de May, Philloponat, Joly, l'Ermite, but this stole the show. Great wine. — 11 years ago
I'll admit, I'm always happy to have a Nicolas Thienpont wine in my glass. The Thienpont family are associated with other great Bordeaux properties including Puygueraud, Pavie Macquin and one of my personal favorites, Vieux Château Certan. The 2014 Les Charmes Godard is slightly austere, with pronounced herbaceousness. Smoky minerality swirls around boxwood, cherimoya and gooseberry notes. It's lean and racy on the palate, lightly hemmed in by oak. Here lime zest, white grapefruit, and white pepper take the center stage. — 9 years ago
Its a Merlot shoot out. ''98 Massetto v '82 Vieux Chateau Certan. Out of the bottle the 82 pomerol is a true winner. The'98 Massetto with ABV of 14.5% is certainly bolder and in. NO HURRY TO drink!! — 10 years ago
