Critics’ scores and tasting notes
“Fresh, poised but demure on the nose with upscale oak rendering a fine note of cigar box and tobacco to the cool cassis, tapenade and grilled red capsicums. Very well-balanced on the palate with a juicy medium body and a tight but layered finish. Refined and long. Well-done for the vintage. Already approachable, but better from 2025.”
Located on one of the highest gravel ridges in the Médoc, at an altitude of around 24 metres, Château du Tertre extends over an 80-hectare estate, including 52 hectares of vines in a single block classified AOC Margaux . This exceptional terroir, composed of deep gravels, gives the wines an elegance and finesse characteristic of the appellation. The history of the estate dates back to the 12th century, with the Arsac manor. In the 17th century, it passed into the hands of the Ségur family, emblematic figures of the Bordeaux wine region. In the 18th century, the industrialist Pierre Mitchell, founder of the first glassworks in Bordeaux, created the Tertre estate and had the château built there around 1736. Classified Cinquième Grand Cru in the official 1855 classification of Bordeaux wines, Château du Tertre has had several owners, each of whom contributed to its development. In 1997, Éric Albada Jelgersma acquired the estate and undertook extensive renovation work. Since 2021, the estate has been run by the Helfrich family.
