Chateau Marquis de Terme 2018

This acclaimed French red achieved significant global recognition after being named #30 on Wine Spectator’s Top 100 Wines of 2025, a prestigious list released in late 2024.

Chateau Marquis de Terme originates from France, specifically from the Bordeaux region and the prestigious Margaux appellation. The estate's modern history began in 1762 as a wedding dowry for François de Peguilhan, Marquis de Terme, whose name it still bears. In 1935, Pierre Seneclauze acquired the property, and it remains a family owned estate today, managed by his three sons. The winery follows a philosophy of precision and low intervention, utilizing sustainable practices that led to official organic certification in 2017.

Wine Description

This Grand Cru Classé presents a deep and intense ruby or purple red colour and a medium to full body. The sensory profile is complex, featuring a nose of blackcurrant, blueberry, and pomegranate, accented by notes of violet, cedar, menthol, and black chocolate. On the elegant palate, it delivers flavours of sweet fresh blackberries, cocoa, and fleshy black cherry, given restraint by hints of slate, graphite, and pink peppercorn. The finish is long and fresh, showcasing silky, delicate tannins and a touch of liquorice.
