Chateau Certan de May(全名是Chateau Certan de May de Certan)是波爾多右岸Pomerol產區裡的著名酒莊，原是Vieux Chateau Certan的一部分，在法國大革命之前是由De May家族所擁有，莊主因為擔心革命戰爭影響於是于1858年將老色丹賣掉，僅留了五公頃未易手，就是現在的Certan de May，又稱為「小色丹」(Petit Certan)。於是形成現在Pomerol區有幾家的Certan色丹堡：老色丹堡Vieux Chateau Certan、德麥色丹堡Certan de May、色丹瑪樂堡Certan Marzelle、色丹幾荷堡Certan Giraud。近年Certan de May是委由Petrus的Jean-Pierre Moueix經營管理。
Certan de May的葡萄園雖僅有小小的5公頃，但周圍的鄰居卻都是來頭很大的、鼎鼎有名的Petrus、Vieux Chateau Certan、Lafleur和Le Pin。葡萄園的土壤是1/3黏土和2/3礫石的組合，種植品種是70 % Merlot、25 % Cabernet Franc和5 % Cabernet Sauvignon，平均樹齡已達45歲。Certan de May的酒是以渾厚紮實著稱，通常需要陳年7-10年，香氣有Petrus的滋味但風格類似波爾多左岸Medoc的風，是不可限量的佳釀。在價格方面Pétrus一瓶動輒要十幾萬，但酒體紮又常令人Pétrus的Certan de May，價格只要Petrus 3-5%左右，多麼的物超所值！
From proprietress Odette Barrau-Badar, this vineyard, which is fabulously located just adjacent to Vieux Château Certan, Petrus and La Fleur Petrus, has produced a 2012 with a dark plum/purple color. There is often considerable Cabernet Franc in this blend, and I think that comes through in this wine with its notes of forest floor, earth and spice. It is fragrant, medium to full-bodied, rich and savory. This is another meaty, concentrated, very successful 2012 Pomerol It should drink well for 20 or more years.
