Situated in the prestigious Pomerol appellation, Vieux Château Certan covers approximately 14 hectares and is one of the largest single-block sites on the Right Bank. Recognised as one of the finest wines in the region, its Grand Vin is often highly scored by influential wine critics. The 2021 vintage is a blend composed of 77% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon. The nose combines violets, rose petals, sweet wild berries, exotic spices, hints of orange rind, and a subtle smoky essence. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, boasting a supple and velvety texture. Its bright core of fruit, accompanied by refined tannins, leads to a precise, saline finish that adds to its allure.

Vieux Chateau Certan

Vieux Chateau Certan

A key Pomerol estate covering 14 hectares, Vieux Château Certan or "VCC" as it's sometimes known is regularly ranked as one of the Right Bank's top properties. The vineyard is planted with around 65% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Picking and sorting is done by hand and varietals are vinified separately in large oak vats. The juice destined for the Grand Vin is run off into 100% new oak for over 18 months before bottling.

The history of the estate dates back to at least the 16th century, when it was purchased by the Demay family from Scotland. The current owners, the Thienpont family, purchased the property in the mid-1920s and were instrumental in establishing their wine's reputation in the region.
