93 points Wine Enthusiast "The second wine of the classified growth Château du Tertre is now rich and just mature. It is smoothly textured with blackberry and spice flavors and a great depth of richness and concentration. Drink the wine now. (Sep 2022)"
92 points Jane Anson (Decanter): "Powerful, intense and concentrated, those tannins are big in quantity and quality. This is a sombre, intellectual wine in the way that many 2016s are. It has a good texture of silky black fruits through the palate, suggesting this will age well, while a white pepper crescendo gives a spicy kick on the finish. 5% Petit Verdot completes the blend, with the wine aged in 50% new oak. Drinking Window: 2024-2040. (10/08/18)"
91-92 points James Suckling: "A soft and velvety red with plum and chocolate character. Medium to full body, round tannins and a juicy finish. Lots of cabernet franc this year. 30% in blend. But still mostly cabernet sauvignon. Second wine of Tertre. (4/4/17)"
