2024, Château Marquis de Terme, MARGAUX, 4ème Grand Cru Classé

Last year EP $61.50-

Bordeaux Blend: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot.

The 2024 Marquis de Terme is elegant, perfumed and nicely lifted. Crushed flowers, mint, spice, red cherry, cinnamon and rose petal lend attractive aromatic presence. This mid-weight, gracious Margaux is impeccably done. It’s the sort of wine that is not trying to be anything more than was possible in this vintage. A burst of fruit punctuates the finish. Tasted three times. 90-92 Antonio Galloni, Vinous (2025).

Slim and supple, savoury blue fruits, shot through with campfire and liquorice, crayon and roses, well handled in the vintage. Good Margaux typicity and has ageing ability in the mid term. Harvest 25 September to 4 October. 40% new oak. Now including the vines from Château Marojallia, but also reducing the percentage of 1st wine overall, so really focusing on the best plots. 92 Jane Anson
