Black plum and blueberry depths define Chateau Certan de May 2015, woven with violet, subtle spice and a gentle herbal lift that keeps everything vivid rather than heavy. The palate feels plush yet controlled, layered with dark cherries and warm red fruits over fine, firm tannins that carry the flavour in a long, composed finish. A classy, quietly powerful Pomerol that captures the vintage’s generosity without losing its grace.

Château Certan de May is a classic, Merlot‑dominant Pomerol from a small single-block vineyard on the appellation’s prized central clay-and-gravel plateau, lying just a stone’s throw from Petrus and Vieux Château Certan. Typically blending around 70% Merlot with Cabernet Franc and a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon, it produces rich yet refined wines marked by dark berry and plum fruit, floral notes, truffle-tinged complexity and a supple, velvety texture that reflects its old vines and blue-chip terroir.
