Vieux Château Certan

Pomerol Cabernet-Merlot blends from Bordeaux's Right Bank.

Vieux Château Certan produces wines from Pomerol, the Right Bank jewel of Bordeaux where clay and iron-rich soils yield structured, complex reds. The winery's flagship Pomerol blends Merlot with Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, building wines of depth and aging potential. La Gravette de Certan, a secondary expression, follows the same varietal framework at a more approachable entry point. Both wines have drawn assessment from Decanter, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, and Falstaff. Pomerol's continental climate and demanding terroir require precision in the vineyard and cellar—conditions that shape the character of these blends, which balance the region's signature plushness with the structural grip of Cabernet varieties.
