Marquis de Terme 2015 (750ML)

92 Points, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2015 Marquis de Terme offers up cassis, black cherries and plums on the nose with touches of garrigue, lavender and Provence herbs. The medium-bodied palate offers great fruit concentration with savory accents and ripe, grainy tannins plus plenty of freshness, finishing earthy." 2/18

92 Points, Neal Martin, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: " The 2015 Marquis de Terme has a crisp and fresh bouquet with mineral-driven black fruit laced with graphite and cedar-not a million miles away from Pauillac in style. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, a keen line of acidity, an appealing sense of symmetry with just the right amount of spice on the finish to beckon you back for another sip. This is a confident, finely tuned Marquis de Terme that will benefit from 5 years in bottle. Anticipated maturity: 2022 - 2040. " 2/18

93 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: "It's great to see the 2015 Marquis de Terme in such fine shape. Sumptuous and radiant, with notable presence, the 2015 has a lot to offer. Super-ripe dark cherry, plum, blood orange and spice build in the glass as this flamboyant, sumptuous Margaux shows off its winning personality. Although decidedly bold, the 2015 has a gracious side as well. In 2015, the blend is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot." 2/18

94 Points, James Suckling: "Fragrant blackberries married to moderate vanilla oak on the nose. Then cue an elegant, moderately tannic palate with some real sophistication. What a seductive wine. I love the long clean, dry and mineral finish that makes you sure this has a couple of decades ahead of it, even if it drinks well now." 2/18

92 Points, James Molesworth, Wine Spectator: "Brambly, juicy and energetic, with anise, plum cake and blackberry compote notes inlaid with brambly tannins. A light black tea streak adds nuance on the finish. Best from 2020 through 2032. 12,500 cases made. " 3/18

94 Points, Wine Enthusiast: "This is a ripe, juicy wine, showing the improvements at this potentially fine estate. Dense tannins and succulent fruit come together to give a wine that is both structured and complex. The black-currant and berry flavors are underlined with a ripe structure. Drink from 2024."
