2008 Ch. du Tertre, Margaux

Ch. du Tertre, Margaux
The charming Alexander van Beek has made yet another classic wine at Ch. du Tertre. Soft, light and pretty, this is an elegant Margaux with a rich, silky red fruit nose and beautiful pure fruit on the palate. Very fine-grained, almost powdery tannins add to this neat little package which has been made from the lowest yields for ten years (28hl/ha); a quaffable little beauty.Château du Tertre

Solid purple-red, concentrated, slightly smoky black fruits, good earthy concentration on the palate, good, could be more complex. Drink 2014-20.

Toasty, mildly cocoa nose. Very pretty texture – not forced. Reminds of du Tertre’s style. Neat. Complete, but a bit forward. Very slightly rasping tannins on the finish.

On three separate occasions the 2008 seemed feral and stinky. The wine is soft with some up-front appeal, but overall it is undistinguished.

This property has been making very fine wines, so I was surprised the 2008 Du Tertre did not perform better on the two occasions I tasted it. Judgment reserved.

This has a light, earthy nose with good definition, cedar and sous-bois, just a hint of black tea. The palate is very fine with pure black fruits, cedar, a touch of vanilla, svelte, fully ripe tannins and well balanced on the finish. This is a great success for the vintage. Sorbet-like finish.
