Roast squab with pan juices
The Cabernet Franc component's leafy, savoury edge is a natural match for dark game bird.
Veal loin with morel sauce
Delicate meat and earthy morels suit a wine whose clay soils give savour rather than overt fruit sweetness.
Duck liver parfait on toasted brioche
The generous new-oak framing and ripe Merlot core stand up to the richness of the liver.
Product information compiled from producer, importer and reference sources.
Château Certan de May is a distinguished Right Bank Bordeaux estate producing refined Pomerol wines. This 2018 vintage showcases the classic blend of 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, delivering a harmonious expression of the appellation's terroir.
The wine opens with dominant dark plum and black cherry fruit, supported by subtle blackcurrant notes. Secondary oak aging introduces cedar and tobacco complexity, while tertiary mineral and earthy undertones emerge with aeration. Medium-full body and balanced tannins create a food-friendly profile suitable for both near-term enjoyment and modest cellaring.
