떼루아

Situated on the high plateau of Pomerol, the estate’s vineyards benefit from a mosaic of clay, gravel, and sandy soils. This diverse terroir allows each grape variety to express its full potential: Merlot brings opulence and roundness, Cabernet Franc adds freshness and aromatic complexity, while Cabernet Sauvignon contributes structure and length.

테이스팅 노트

Deep garnet color with purple highlights. The nose is intense and complex, revealing aromas of blackberries, black cherries, violets, graphite, and subtle tobacco. On the palate, the wine is powerful yet graceful, with silky tannins, vibrant freshness, and a long, layered finish combining ripe fruit, spice, and mineral notes.

A majestic and balanced Pomerol, offering both richness and finesse — a true reflection of Vieux Château Certan’s signature elegance and aging capacity.

양조 및 숙성

Manual harvest with strict grape selection, gentle extraction, and fermentation in temperature-controlled vats. The wine is aged in French oak barrels, with a significant proportion of new oak, for about 18 months to enhance complexity and structure.
