From an up and coming Châteaux in the commune of Margaux, this is now very much hitting the standard expected of a 5th Growth. Soft, delicious and drinking perfectly.

Scents of damp earth, tobacco, black currants, and smoke emerge from this medium-bodied, ostentatious 2002. While the tannin is noticeable, the wine exhibits a sweet attack, excellent concentration, a reasonably long finish, and a surprisingly seductive personality.
Readers should be taking a serious look at this estate as recent vintages have exhibited significant improvement. Du Tertre is a stylish, full-flavored, somewhat exotic Margaux with good aging potential. Moreover, it remains reasonably priced.
