This area is renowned for producing wines of extraordinary elegance and complexity, thanks to its unique terroir, characterized by soils rich in clay and gravel, which give the wines a particular structure and depth. In particular, Pomerol is famous for Merlot, which in this area expresses exceptional qualities, often enriched with percentages of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon to add complexity and aging potential.
The Croix De Certain embodies the quintessence of Pomerol, enhancing the distinctive characteristics of Merlot with its rich expression of ripe red fruits, notes of plum, cherry and a subtle vein of sweet and earthy spices, typical of the terroir. Winemaking is carefully managed to respect the unique character of the grapes, with aging in oak barriques harmonizing the flavors and adding complexity, resulting in a wine of great elegance and finesse.

In the mouth, the Croix De Certain reveals a rich and velvety structure, with ripe and well-integrated tannins that support a full and harmonious palate. Its balanced acidity leads towards a long and persistent finish, with an aftertaste that brings to mind delicate spices and ripe fruit.
Ideal paired with red meats, game and mushroom dishes, Croix De Certain is also an excellent companion for meditation evenings or special occasions, where its complexity and depth can be fully appreciated. Its aging capacity allows it to be stored in the cellar for several years, during which the wine continues to evolve, developing greater complexity and aromatic nuances.
