"The wine is showing very well,it is beautifully poised and elegant (like our Queen),in the early stages of energetic maturity (like our King),dedicated and charming (the Royal Couple),classic Du Tertre,classic 2005,toasty oak,black pepper and ripe red berries,impeccable balance and length,very stylish.Delicious now and until 2030.Long may he reign!".

"Even in the highly acclaimed 2005 vintage,Du Tertre remains under most consumer's radar.Made by essentially the same winemaking team as Giscours,this cuvee exhibits a dense purple color,followed by earthy,truffle,smoky blackberry,floral and cassis aromas.It is a beautifully pure,medium to full-bodied wine with abundant but sweet tannin,fine opulence,a multilayered texture,and a long finish that is neither aggressive,nor astringent.Cellar it for another 3-4 years and consume it over the following 20-25".
