Chateau du Tertre is situated on one of the highest hills in Medoc (tertre means knoll). Its 50-hectare vineyard, all in one piece, is remarkable for its excellent exposure and the composition of its fine gravel soil. Its wines, which show great finesse, are outstanding for their lovely color and their perfumed aromatic savour.

Chateau du Tretre "...has turned in a terrific performance with its 2000...The opaque purple-colored 2000 offers a sweet nose of black fruits intermixed with flowers, truffles, and new barrique scents. This full-bodied effort possesses wonderful density, sweet tannin, and a long, concentrated, persuasive finish. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2020. Bravo!" (RP 90 - 92)
