Chateau Marquis de Terme 2022 Margaux

Château Marquis de Terme was classified a Quatrième Cru, or Fourth Growth, in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. The estate occupies 40 hectares in the heart of Margaux, where deep gravel soils over pockets of clay provide the drainage and heat retention particularly favourable to Cabernet Sauvignon. These gravelly terraces are central to Margaux’s reputation for combining Cabernet structure with greater perfume and finesse than many neighbouring Médoc appellations.

The 2022 blend is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 39% Merlot and 6% Petit Verdot.
