The De May (or Demay) family were said to be of Scottish origin, but had lived in France since the Middle Ages, and in Pomerol since the late 1500s. The family became masters of the fief of Sertan, the oldest vineyard in the district. This area also covered the modern vineyards of Vieux Château Certan (which lies just over the road from the winery building) and Château Certan-Giraud (since renamed Château Hosanna), but was divided up after the French Revolution. Since the death of the last de May in 1925, the estate has been owned by the Barreau-Badar family and is currently managed by Jean-Luc Barreau. The vineyard covers five hectares (12 acres), with 70 percent planted to Merlot, 25 percent Cabernet Franc and 5 percent Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine is aged for 12 to 14 months in French oak barrels, with 60-80 percent new oak. Around 2000 cases are produced each year.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-08T12:09:04-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-08T09:50:39-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","nini0802","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Certan de May","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Bestofwines0223","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":59899,"price_min":59899,"price_max":59899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42770477088906,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2019 | Chateau Certan de May | Pomerol","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":59899,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/70_60398154-0fad-474c-aff1-cee8e8e15a7b.png?v=1675867881"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/70_60398154-0fad-474c-aff1-cee8e8e15a7b.png?v=1675867881","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2019 | Chateau Certan de May | Pomerol at CaskCartel.com","id":24195370287242,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.473,"height":866,"width":410,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/70_60398154-0fad-474c-aff1-cee8e8e15a7b.png?v=1675867881"},"aspect_ratio":0.473,"height":866,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/70_60398154-0fad-474c-aff1-cee8e8e15a7b.png?v=1675867881","width":410}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2019 | Chateau Certan de May | Pomerol\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2019 Certan de May has turned out very well, offering up aromas of rich cherries, cassis, loamy soil and creamy but nicely integrated new oak.
