"The 2021 Tertre Roteboeuf offers up wonderfully pure aromas of bitter cherry, blackberries and damson, with sweet spices and cigar leaves. The palate is briny and linear on the entry, opening onto a velvety, seductive mid-palate of cranberries and wintery dark berries, vivaciously fresh and framed rather majestically by fine, firm tannins. Picked between 6th and 18th October.
