Tasting Notes

Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Mar 20
The 2017 du Tertre is a very pretty wine. Succulent red cherry, dried flowers, mint, blood orange and spice notes meld together in a pliant, mid-weight Margaux that will drink well right out of the gate. This is an especially elegant vintage for a property that often leans towards a wilder style. The 2017 is one of the prettiest recent Tertres I can remember tasting.

The Wine Independent Lisa Perrotti-Brown - 29 Dec 22
The 2017 du Tertre has a medium to deep garnet-purple color. It shoots out with vibrant notes of dried Provencal herbs, ripe cranberries, and redcurrant preserves, plus suggestions of black olives and chargrill. The light to medium-bodied palate is chewy and delicately played, with just enough freshness and an herbal lift on the finish.
