The winery is located south of Pomerol(Bordeaux) in the area of the same name. The name comes from the founding family, presumably of Scottish origin. It is usually referred to as "Château Certan" or "Château Certan de May" for short. It was once part of Vieux Château Certan. In 1925, it came into the possession of the Barreau-Badar family and is now managed by Jean-Luc Barreau. The vineyards cover five hectares and are planted with Merlot (70%), Cabernet Franc (25%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (5%). The long-lasting red wine is matured for 24 months in 50% new barriques.

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
