Peter Maude Fine Wines
2020, Château Marquis de Terme, MARGAUX 4ème Grand Cru Classé
$104
Bordeaux blend: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot.
Roses and patchouli aromas on the nose. Svelte and charming on the palate, sumptuous but restrained and delicate. Excellent sculpting and persistence with real florality and herbal-touched cool blue fruits. It’s not massively weighty, more linear and focused but with style to it. Pretty, seductive and alive, all in the best way with a juicy core. An excellent effort this year and a wine that will be approachable soon but will age too. Sleek, refined, cool and classic. 94/100 Georgina Hindle, Decanter.
