This 125-acre vineyard is beautifully situated in the southern sector of the appellation of Margaux. Dense ruby/purple, with sweet cassis fruit, Du Tertre’s 2012 has a perfumed, elegant, lush, velvety-textured mouthfeel and impressive purity and depth.
Roasted alder and bay notes gently line the core of crushed plum and red currant preserves, reemerging on the finish while picking up a sanguine hint.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 17/20 points.
