As the wine evolves, a nuanced interplay of flavors emerges, culminating in a finish of notable length and persistence. The du Tertre 2019 is a harmonious and expressive Bordeaux, embodying the essence of its terroir and promising both immediate pleasure and the potential for graceful evolution over the years to come.
Robert Parker - 93 Points
"The 2019 du Tertre opens in the glass with aromas of sweet cassis and plums mingled with undergrowth, cedarwood, violets and subtle hints of cigar wrapper. Medium-bodied, bright and integrated, with a nicely concentrated core of fruit, lively acids and fine, powdery tannins that assert themselves on the finish, it delivers a certain generosity of fruit in a fine-boned package. Even if this numbers among the more powerful du Tertre vintages of recent years, it remains a wine defined by elegance more than impact."
