Château Certan de May, a jewel of Pomerol, is renowned for its small but highly esteemed vineyard that produces wines of exceptional finesse and complexity. Nestled in the heart of the Pomerol plateau, this historic estate is celebrated for its Merlot-dominant blends, which embody the unique character of this prestigious appellation. The 2007 vintage is marked by its elegance and approachability, offering a delicate expression of Pomerol. Subtle aromas of red berries, plum, and hints of truffle lead to a soft, medium-bodied palate with fine tannins and a refined finish. This vintage is perfect for enjoying now, showcasing the estate's ability to create balanced wines even in cooler years. The 2013 vintage, while more challenging due to a cooler growing season, presents a lighter but equally sophisticated profile. Expect notes of fresh red fruits, earth, and a touch of spice, with a vibrant acidity that makes it ideal for pairing with a range of dishes. Both vintages pair beautifully with classic French cuisine, particularly duck confit, lamb dishes, or a rich mushroom risotto. These wines are perfect for those who appreciate the nuanced, elegant side of Pomerol, with the 2007 ready to drink and the 2013 offering potential for further ageing.
