Note di degustazione
The 1966 Château du Tertre, served at the property by estate manager Alexandre Van Beek, is the oldest vintage that I have tasted from the Margaux estate. Perhaps I was hoping that it would match the wonderful 1966 Giscours, however, the fact is that this falls a long way short. It had an animally, feral nose with hickory and singed leather, the fruit departed many moons ago. The palate is medium-bodied and quite acetic, rather hollow with a dry finish. In other words...stick to the Giscours! Tasted June 2015.

Informazioni sul produttore
Until recently owned by the Albada Jelgersma family (along with Giscours), Ch. du Tertre is one of the oldest estates in the region – with a history stretching back 1,000 years. Classified as a Fifth Growth, its 54 hectares of vines sit on high gravel outcrops in Margaux.
