Note di degustazione
The 2025 Marquis de Terme was picked September 8 to 23 and aged in 40% new oak. It has a commendably pure redcurrant and raspberry-scented nose, hints of rose petal and violet emerging with time in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip. Firm backbone, sapid, with a prickle of white pepper towards the finish. This is a Marquis de Terme with a bit more substance than usual and it should age better than other vintages. A second sample was even better than the first, with a gorgeous finish that reminded me of Palmer!

Deep purple-hued, the 2025 Château Marquis De Terme sports a rich, powerful nose of black fruits, smoke, ripe blueberries, iron, and chocolate. Based on 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, and 2% Petit Verdot that will spend 14-16 months in 40% new French oak, it's full-bodied on the palate, with a round, layered mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. Checking in at 13% alcohol, it's a powerful expression of this château that still holds onto a solid sense of purity and balance. Notably, this is the first vintage for winemaker Paloma Sénéclauze.
Solid, well made and chalky, with dark berry, dried herb and warm spice aromas. Medium- to full-bodied with fine, firm tannins. Persistent finish.
The 2025 Marquis de Terme is terrific, not to mention one of the finest wines I have tasted here. Rich, ample and explosive, the 2025 has so much to offer, starting with its impressive textural depth. Blackberry, gravel, dark spice and licorice add a palpable dimension of somber intensity, while Floral overtones perk up the close. This is seriously impressive. Tasted three times.
