Château Certan de May 1990 is a Pomerol red wine predominantly made from Merlot, with smaller proportions of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. The 1990 vintage was famously rich, resulting in a wine that is full-bodied and soft, with scents of sweet cassis, cedar and roasted herbs, leading to a palate with melted tannins, having reached a mature drinking stage.

First Class Pomerol

Situated on the prized central plateau of Pomerol, Château Certan de May is situated adjacent to two other world famous Right Bank properties - Vieux Château Certan and La Fleur-Pétrus. The vineyards are characterised by the mix of clay and gravel typical of the commune and the winemaking has a focus on concentration and power. Michel Rolland was consulting in the cellar until 2012 when Jean-Claude Berrouet took over.

The vineyard is planted with 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon with vines averaging around 50 years of age. Wines are fermented for between four and six weeks before around 18 months ageing in oak barrels, around 40% of which are new.
