Note di degustazione
The 2018 Les Hauts du Tertre has a pretty blackberry and cranberry bouquet, nicely defined though not powerful. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, fine acidity and some new oak (30%) still to be subsumed on the finish, though there is decent length. This should give several years of drinking pleasure.

A fresh and firm red with mushroom and walnut character. Hints of spice and dark fruit. Medium-bodied. Juicy finish. Spicy and fresh from the 25 per cent cabernet franc in the blend.
The 2018 Les Hauts du Tertre is a pretty, gracious wine. Sweet tobacco, earthy notes, licorice and dried cherry are nicely lifted. The 2018 is an especially lifted, earthy Margaux. This mid-weight, open-knit Margaux is best enjoyed sooner rather than later. It would be nice to see a little more richness and overall structure. This is a relatively light style for Margaux. The blend is 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc.
50% of the crop went into the second wine this year. 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc. Barrel sample. Deep cherry red. Chalky overlay on the subtle black fruit. Juicy and dark-fruited, concentrated fruit but really lively. Finest of tannins, silky. Fragrantly Margaux. With air, even more so. Attractively sour dark fruit to finish. (JH)
