Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2016 Marquis-de-Terme has a nicely detailed bouquet, perhaps not as vigorous or as intense as the 2015 last year, but opening nicely with raspberry, blueberry and a touch of violet. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, crisp and tightly-wound black fruit tinged with graphite, grippy towards the finish, which is concise if not prolonged. This has good potential, but it is just a furlong behind the 2015 at the moment.

James Suckling

Impressive aromas of fresh summer berries, slate and toasty oak. This has a very succulent array of ripe red plums and berries and delivers a smooth, long and appealingly grainy edge of very plush, flavorful tannins. A lot to like here. A blend of merlot, cabernet sauvignon and petit verdot.

Andreas Larsson - Tasted

Fine toast, coffee, dark berries, cassis, plum, cedar and tobacco. Dense medium weight, elegant with ripe tannin, fine oak and a long lingering finish.

Wine Enthusiast

This relatively little-known estate is now performing well. In this vintage the wine has gained weight as well as blackberry fruits and rich tannins. Its balance is already there and the wine should develop to be drunk by 2023.
