" La Gravette de Certan 2020 is broad and demonstrative, overflowing with aromas of cherries, dark berries, licorice, cedar, and dried herbs. Rich and fleshy, it is a complex and textured wine, with ripe tannins, lively acidity, and an expansive finish. " William Kelley, The Wine Advocate. 91 points/100
"The 2020 Gravette is fabulous, even though it's unlike any other Gravette I've tasted before. It's a very impressive wine that is frankly better than many great wines. A lovely exotic note, similar to blood orange, beautifully illuminates the finish. The 2020 is a truly great Gravette." Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 95 points/100
La Gravette de Certan is the second wine of Vieux Château Certan in Pomerol . The blend is quite unusual in 2020, with 15% of cabernet sauvignon, which gives La Gravette a profile clearly oriented towards the left bank, with aromas of blackcurrant, graphite, lavender and dried herbs.
