Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (94)

The 2022 Certan de May opens in the glass with aromas of cherries, minty berries, spices and fruitcake, followed by a medium to full-bodied, pure and fleshy palate that's lively and harmonious, with good depth and a classically proportioned profile.

James Suckling (97)

The bramble berry and blueberry character with violets and black olives comes through clearly here. It’s full-bodied yet the quality of the tannins are polished and attractive. Strength with appeal. 60% merlot, 30% cabernet franc and 10% cabernet sauvignon.

Jancis Robinson (17)

60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Cask sample.
Another fine offering from this much-improved estate. Deep, bright crimson. Red- and dark-fruit notes with a hint of liquorice. Attractive density and weight. Juicy, fresh and gourmand, the tannins silky and long. Persistent. (JL)

Vinous (95)

The 2022 Certan de May is a seriously beautiful wine. Ripe, succulent and very juicy, Certan de May offers tons of immediacy. The style is perhaps a bit opulent, but that is the year. Blue/purplish fruit, licorice, lavender, spice and chocolate are front and center in this decidedly hedonistic Pomerol.

Jeb Dunnuck (93)

A more Cabernet-dominated blend from Pomerol, the 2022 Château Certan De May is 60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Traditionally a fresher, floral wine, the 2022 is no exception with its bright red and blue fruits as well as spring flowers, fresh cut herbs, violets, and damp earth-driven aromatics. These carry to a medium to full-bodied, pure, nicely balanced Pomerol with supple, polished tannins, a good spine of acidity, and outstanding length.
