A wine of extraordinary depth and refinement, Vieux Château Certan is a quintessential expression of Pomerol’s elegance and power. From the first sip, it captivates with its remarkable structure and layered complexity. On the nose, lush aromas of ripe plum, black cherry, and cassis unfold, intertwined with notes of violet, truffle, and fine spices, signature elements of Pomerol’s prestigious terroir. Subtle hints of mocha, tobacco, and cedar add further depth, while a delicate minerality enhances its sophistication. The palate is rich, silky, and impeccably balanced, offering both intensity and finesse. The tannins are velvety yet structured, supporting a core of concentrated dark fruit, seamlessly complemented by fresh acidity and an underlying earthiness. As the wine evolves, deeper nuances of dark chocolate, espresso, and cigar box emerge, leading to a long, lingering finish with refined spice and subtle floral notes.

Store bottles on their side
Storing bottles horizontally keeps the cork in constant contact with the wine, preventing it from drying out and ensuring a proper seal over time.
Keep in a cool, stable environment
A steady, cool temperature helps wines age gracefully. Avoid fluctuations, as they can disturb the wine’s balance and long-term quality.
Away from light and heat
Protect bottles from direct light and excessive warmth, both of which can accelerate aging and alter the wine’s aromas and structure.
