In 2022, Chateau du Tertre delivers a deeply colored, graphite-tinged Margaux with vivid blackcurrant and plum fruit wrapped in a firm, finely etched frame. The palate is medium to full in body, layered and concentrated yet still classically poised, with polished tannins, hints of licorice and cedar, and a long, precise finish that shows real promise for graceful evolution. This is a particularly impressive, potentially benchmark vintage for du Tertre, combining modern depth with the estate’s traditional elegance.

Château du Tertre is the estate’s Grand Vin, a Cabernet-Sauvignon–led Bordeaux blend from one of the highest gravel ridges in Margaux, classified as a Cinquième Grand Cru Classé in 1855. Typically medium to full-bodied and refined rather than massive, it is known for its elegant blackcurrant and floral character, supple tannins, and a distinctly fresh, saline, mineral edge that reflects its classic Médoc gravel terroir.
