The 2022 La Gravette de Certan is 100% Merlot from three main blocks (including one in front of Le Pin), mainly sourced from younger vines that will eventually enter into VCC. Matured in 50% new oak, it has an open bouquet with blackberry, briar and light mint aromas. The medium-bodied palate is fresh, vibrant and quite saline with pliant tannins and an elegant, refined finish. This is just a lovely wine.
