Producer

Producer

The Vieux Château Certan vineyard stretches across prime plots, benefiting from a temperate oceanic climate. The soils, composed of clay and gravel, allow for optimal drainage, promoting root development. Each vine is carefully tended, and the estate practices sustainable viticulture, respecting the environment. This attention to the vineyard results in grapes of exceptional quality, essential to the production of its fine wines.

Owner and history

Today, Vieux Château Certan is run by the Thunevin family, who have preserved the estate's heritage while breathing new life into it. Their passion for winemaking and their commitment to quality wines are evident in every bottle. By cultivating an environmentally conscious approach and highlighting the terroir, they continue to write the prestigious history of this iconic Pomerol estate.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Vieux Château Certan is a meticulous art. The grapes are harvested by hand, ensuring rigorous selection. After delicate destemming, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled vats, allowing the full expression of aromas. Aging in oak barrels, some of which are new, lasts approximately 18 months, lending the wine complexity and depth. This traditional process, combined with modern techniques, results in a wine of great elegance.
