The 2021 Certan de May shows promise, offering up aromas of sweet cherries and berries mingled with hints of violets, rose petals and nicely integrated new oak. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and fleshy, with lively acids and ripe, powdery tannins, I suspect it will flesh out with further élevage to become even more impressive. The blend incorporates fully 37% Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, a figure that reflects the vintage (which favored these varieties) as well as a tendency to replant with Cabernet rather than Merlot over the last decade.

James Suckling (94)

A CM with depth and finesse. Layers of fine tannins. Medium body. Blackberry and blueberry flavors. Juicy and fine finish.

Falstaff (92)

Deep ruby with purple reflections at the narrow rim. Restrained, red cherries, fine nuances of cranberries, a little nougat, candied orange zest. Juicy, elegant, ripe tannins, delicate red fruit finish, mineral aftertaste; charming but with more to come, one for ageing.
