9 de Marquis de Terme, AOC Margaux, 2014

Marquis de Terme is an exceptional wine. So exceptional that we have decided to offer the remarkable 2014 a second time as we were – exceptionally – able to secure a further allocation. The bouquet opens ripe and complex, delivering an aromatic symphony of blackberry, black cherry, leather, cinnamon, tar, and cigar box. The silky mid-palate glides across the tongue. It was a compelling drinking last year, this time it is highly polished with bramble, cassis, beef stock, and vanilla. Needless to say, the tannins are gorgeously integrated and there is plenty of acidity to support. The finish is lingering with complex and developing flavours. A glorious glass of red Bordeaux. 2025-2035–MP
