2011 Chateau du Tertre 5eme Cru Classe, Margaux 6x75cl

Chateau du Tertre

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 88

Existing since the 12th century, and with a vineyard that has been predominantly unchanged since 1855, Château du Tertre is steeped in history. 3.68 hectares of the 52 hectare Château du Tertre vineyard goes into the creation of the château’s white wine. Its excellent terroir is mostly gravel with some sandy soils and bears similarities to the terrain of some second and third growths. Situated near a forest, it has a slightly cooler micro-climate which contributes to the freshness of the wines. From 2008 onward the château began to experiment with biodynamic farming techniques, with the aim to become fully biodynamic in the future.

Ian D'Agata

Bright red-ruby. Floral redcurrant, red cherry and pungent herbs on the nose and in the mouth. Gently sweet and smooth, with subtle licorice nuances building with air through the straightforward, moderately persistent, youthfully tannic finish.

Robert M. Parker, Jr.

A seductive 2011, Du Tertre exhibits a dense purple color along with an attractive, fragrant, flowery nose of red and black fruits, licorice and a touch of earth. With good texture, medium body, an excellent finish, and no hard edges, it can be enjoyed over the next 10-15 years.

Dark crimson. Spicy nose - even a hint of cinnamon! Light and angular. Pleasant enough but not top drawer. A bit astringent on the end.
