Vieux Château Certan Pomerol Tinto

Description

“This Pomerol boasts a history as dramatic as a Scottish romance. Established in the 14th century by the Demay family, Vieux Château Certan has a lineage of remarkable owners – from the imposing Charles de Bousquet to the flamboyant Georges Thienpont, a merchant with a rather distinctive palate. Legend has it the ‘Certan’ in the name stemmed from a simple spelling error. It’s a wine deeply rooted in the Merlot terroir, and frankly, it deserves a magnificent Iberico pork dish to truly unfurl its complexities.”
