Château Marquis de Terme 2015 – Margaux – 4ème Cru Classé

The nose is elegant, straight, fruity and offers a slight concentration. It reveals notes of cassis, licorice, blackberry and strawberry combined with touches of crushed redcurrant as well as slight touches of chocolate, caramelized oak, spices / gray pepper and slight hints of violet. The palate is fruity, mineral, well-balanced, racy, a bit aerial and offers roundness, fat, a slight straightness, a beautiful minerality, a slight gourmandise (in the background) as well as an acid frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of blackberry, fresh/ripe redcurrant and strawberry associated with a touch of raspberry, subtle touches of caramelized oak, vanilla and a subtle touch of almond. Tannins are fine. Good length.
