The wines from Château Certan de May owe their complexity to the vineyard’s soil composition, a combination of clay and gravel that bring together power and elegance. The 2018 vintage is a fresh and juicy wine, composed of 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Beautifully aromatic, with scents of red cherries, blueberries, plums, fresh herbs and cinnamon. On the palate, the wine presents some new oak toastiness and savoury characters, finishing on a spicy note.

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.
