One of the highest vineyards in the appellation, Certan de May adjoins Petrus. Its old vines, with an average age of 30 years, are planted in clay-gravel soil.

Harvested late in order to ensure that the grapes are fully ripe, this Pomerol is of an exceptionally high standard. Very well-balanced, rich and complex, the wines combine woody and fruity flavours (cherries, blackcurrants etc.). It has an impressive capacity to age in good vintages.
