Very elegant! Aroma and bouquet of cassis, blackberries, cocoa, licorice, and vanilla. Rich flavor of berry-like fruits and rich but silky tannin. The acidity and minerals made this wine very elegant. Reasonable finish.
The winery, Chateau du Tertre, is AC Margaux of Bordeaux and located on hill ("Tertre" means "hill" in French) in the commune Arsac. Before 1960, the condition of the chateau's vinyard was terrible. In 1961 Phillippe Gasqueton, the owner of Ch. Calon Segur at the time, acquired the ownership of this winery and made great effort to restore the vineyard and Chateau. After his death in 1995, the winery was sold to the owner of the Ch. Giscours. The new owner renewed the vineyard and Chateau; in the result, the quality of "Chateau du Tertle" improved dramatically.
Elegant style with rich fruit aroma. It may mariage with roasted beef:)
