James Suckling 92
A pretty nose of blueberries, strawberries, plums, dried herbs, chocolate and allspice. Medium-to full-bodied with fine, ripe tannins and fresh acidity. Layered and velvety. Second wine of du Tertre. A blend of 45% merlot, 38% cabernet sauvignon, 12% cabernet franc and 5% petit verdot. Drink from 2024.

The palate offers a wonderful acidity that gives lift, energy and long finish.
