2013 Château du Tertre, Margaux, Bordeaux

Description

Always a value wine and is likely to be so again this year despite being steps ahead of most of its peers. Atypical for du Tertre, this has 80% Cabernet Sauvignon but the result really is a triumph for the vintage. Warmth, generous, focussed core and breadth of fruit backed by savoury, cooling tannins provide exceptional length and energy. We’ve been following du Tertre for over a decade now and the investment made at the Chateau is now showing the full results with other ‘lesser’ vintages such as 2001, 2002 and 2007 providing superb drinking quality to boot, this 2013 will undoubtedly provide the same. A bargain.

Margaux

Margaux

If Pauillac is the bastion of ‘traditional’ Red Bordeaux, Margaux represents its other facet in producing wines that are some of the region’s most sensual and alluring. The largest commune in the Médoc, it encompasses the communes of Cantenac, Soussans, Arsac and Labaude, in addition to the village of Margaux itself. Its finest examples are paragons of refinement and subtlety which have few parallels in Bordeaux.
