Perfectly positioned in the centre of the Pomerol plateau, with a single block of vines, Vieux Château Certan rubs shoulders with prestigious neighbours such as Petrus, La Conseillante, and L'Evangile, and also Certan de May, that was created as a result of the division of the property in 1858.

At that time, Charles de Bousquet, the new owner of Vieux Château Certan, undertook the reconstruction of the château, which still stands out today among the relatively simple residences one tends to see in Pomerol. Vieux Certain was bought by Georges Thienpont in 1924. This family of Belgian wine merchants, who have been responsible for the renaissance of Le Pin's exceptional terroir (something of a precursor of ¿garage wines¿), is still in control of the property, represented by Alexandre, Georges Thienpont's grandson. The vineyard lies on a subsoil that combines clay with the famous iron residues of Pomerol's plateau (that characterize Petrus' terroir) and a substantial quantity of gravel, which gives the wine a rare elegance and aromas with a refinement reminiscent of the great wines of the Médoc. After manual harvests, a particularly meticulous vinification is carried out, with separate oak vats for each grape variety. The wines are then aged in new oak barrels for 18 to 22 months. Less powerful than traditional Pomerols, Vieux Château Certan acquires exceptional finesse over the years, combined with a fabulous concentration and richness.

All the spirits offered are in stock and also available in our store at 3 rue Lucien Faure in BORDEAUX - Line stop B/7/32 Cité du vin
