60% cabernet sauvignon, 35% merlot, and 5% petit verdot. Aged in 50% new oak for 16 months. A bright, fresh nose offers newly picked strawberry and red plum. This is another high-toned wine that boasts excellent freshness. And while the tannins are there, I think they should resolve nicely over the next few months in barrel. I look forward to trying this again, as there is a lot going on, and expect that this will turn into a wine of nice complexity and elegance.

A wine with dried meats and berries on the nose and palate. Full body, beautiful fine tannins and a juicy finish finish. Chewy tannins. Still needs time to come together. Try in 2016.

The Marquis de Terme '10 has a well-defined bouquet with ripe blackcurrant, cedar, boysenberry and a touch of shellfish. Good lift and focus. The palate is medium-bodied with fully ripe tannins, very good weight and acidity, quite linear at the moment but very harmonious and cohesive towards the finish. The oak seems to be totally in tune with the fruit, whereas in 2009 it was dancing to a slightly different beat. This is an excellent Marquis de Terme.

This is alluring, with the sappy feel of the kirsch, dark plum and loganberry fruit melded nicely to a charcoal spine. The long, smoldering finish reveals a singed iron note and features good grip. Should evolve nicely. Best from 2015 through 2030. -JM
