2021 Château Marquis de Terme, Cru Classé Margaux

2021 Château Marquis de Terme, Cru Classé Margaux

Bright, expressive and perfumed with precise dark berry fruit, black plum, dark chocolate, and savoury spice. More lifted floral notes and sappier fruit character create a refreshing feel on the palate. Well balanced, with fresh acidity cutting through concentrated fruit flavours, and an appetising spicy note on the finish.

Tasting notes

The 2021 Marquis de Terme is a powerful, deep wine, but it has not come together quite as well as I had hoped. Today, burly contours and strong acids dominate. I don’t see much Margaux charm today. Dark red cherry, scorched earth, chalk, white pepper and floral notes struggle to fully emerge from behind a wall of coarse tannins. Perhaps time will help. Tasted three times.
