Chateau du Tertre Margaux 2015

$7299

Du Tertre's 2015 captures one of the great classical Bordeaux vintages in its early prime. The estate's defining feature - a gravel mound that is the highest point in Margaux - gives this Cabernet-led blend exceptional drainage and a signature lift of perfume. Still youthful and structured, with plenty of dark fruit and firm tannin to carry it for another fifteen-plus years, but already showing the violet-and-graphite charm that makes Margaux Margaux. Decant for a hour or two if drinking now.

Antonio Galloni

"This bottle of 2015 du Tertre was showing a bit of brettanomyces that smothered what in the past has constituted a fine Margaux. Subsequently, I opened another bottle, sighted, that was more in line with previous encounters, offering bilberry and blackberry on the nose and a light graphite note on the palate. This is a wine that I will track closely. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting." —Neal Martin

Robert Parker

"The 2015 du Tertre is medium to deep garnet-purple in color with a nose of baked cherries, blackberries and dried herbs with a waft of potpourri and fallen leaves. The medium-bodied palate is delicately styled with perfumed red and black fruits supported by firm, grainy tannins and it finishes with a refreshing herbal lift." —Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Decanter

92 points

"Full of a late summer evening feel, where the sense of exuberance fits the sheer languid sexiness of the thing. This has smoky oak, rich blueberries and charcoal. The ripe fruit is not precise so much as enticing; it's an unhurried and extremely beguiling wine."

Wine Spectator

93 points

"Sandalwood, rooibos tea and warm raspberry aromas lead off, with silky and refined waves of cassis, blackberry preserves and black currant paste."

Wine Enthusiast

96 points

"This sister property to Château Giscours is firing on all cylinders with this wine. Rich, full of black currant fruit and dark tannins, it is dense while also supple. It has excellent aging potential and should not be drunk before 2024." —Roger Voss
