Decanter

Orange blossom, apricot, gooseberry and green apple. Lifted and zingy straight away, this has a burst of energy and liveliness, creamy but also citrus focussed with an enjoyable stony minerality. Balanced and very enjoyable, this has a real personality, still with a touch of austerity that should settle. A different category in terms of white wine style - lime, lemon, bitter pineapple, crunchy and crisp with bite and tang. Great stuff. 14% Viognier completes the blend. Ageing 60% new oak barrels, 40% one year old barrels for six months. Refreshing and moreish. 3.2pH.

Pineapples, white peaches, tangerine, and assorted spices fill the aromatic profile. Fresh, energetic, even racy on the palate, the wine leaves you with zesty orange and yellow citrus, and a splash of white peaches. The blend is 33% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Chardonnay, 23% Gros Manseng, and 14% Viognier. The wine is vinified in stainless steel and aged in French oak barrels, 60% new. Drink from 2026-2031. 91-91 pts

Le Figaro Vin

Bursting with energy, the nose unfolds aromas of citrus, citrus peel and tropical fruit in a distinctly varietal bouquet. The palate is more composed. It offers notes of fresh pineapple, passion fruit and grapefruit zest, but in half-tones.

Description

Tasting Characteristics and Tips for the Tertre Blanc 2024 Château du Tertre

Tasting

Nose
The nose entices with a pronounced, yet refined aromatic profile. The bouquet reveals elegant floral notes, such as lilac and jasmine, harmoniously interwoven with fruity aromas of pear and peach.

Palate
The attack is characterized by the roundness and volume typical of chardonnay, supported by a fine acidity. The tasting concludes with a saline finish imparted by the presence of gros manseng.

A rare and complex white from the prestigious terroir of Margaux

The estate

Founded in the 18th century by Pierre Mitchell, inventor of the Bordeaux bottle, the Château du Tertre was classified as a Fifth Growth in 1855. Since the acquisition of the estate by Eric Albada Jelgersma at the end of 1997, significant investments have been undertaken to reveal the full richness of this exceptional terroir, renowned for its remarkable homogeneity. Since January 2021, management has been entrusted to the Helfrich family, at the helm of the trading house Les Grands Chais de France.

The vineyard

The parcels selected for the production of this Vin de Fance benefit from an exceptional 6.20-hectare terroir. The sandy-gravel soils provide excellent drainage and optimal heat reflection, promoting perfect ripening of the grapes while preserving their aromatic freshness.

Vinification and ageing

Hand-harvested with rigorous sorting before crushing without destemming. Following pressing, only the first press juices are kept. Aged for 6 months in barrels (50% new, 50% once-used).

Blend

33% sauvignon blanc, 30% chardonnay, 23% gros manseng and 14% viognier.
