Score 90/100 · Robert Parker

The best Vieux-Chateau-Certan of the seventies, the 1975 has excellent power and richness as well as complexity and balance. Medium to dark ruby, with a fragrant, ripe, rich, plummy, cedary, spicy bouquet, full body, big, concentrated flavors, and moderate tannin, the wine is just beginning to reach its apogee. Anticipated maturity: Now-2000. Last tasted, 12/88. Jan 1998, www.robertparker.com
