Sitting on one of Margaux's highest gravel hill tops, Chateau Du Tertre vineyards are made up of 63% Cabenet Sauvignon and the rest is split roughly evenly between Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.
Embracing innovation and evolution, Chateau Du Tertre vinify each plot separately in varying ways depending on each sites qualities and characteristics in a mix of concrete and wood vats, all thermoregulated.
The blend on the Les Hauts du Tertre 2015 is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20 % Merlot, 25 % Cabernet Franc
Ageing takes place in 100% French oak barrels, each year 30% of which are new oak barrels for between 12-15 months.
The taste clearly demonstrates the Cabernet Sauvignon dominance with a fresh red currant fruit core and silky, enveloping tannins while the Merlot and Cab Franc add some roundness and suppleness with generous fruit notes. The maturity of the wine is seeing all these elements gain further finesse and complexity.
