Le Tertre Roteboeuf
Deeply passionate, Francois Mitjavile makes Tertre-Rotebouef - a ‘garage wine’ with real character. The small estate on a limestone slope in Saint Emilion has terroir of a very high standard. Very low yields give the wine intense concentration of fruit and, combined with a lavish use of oak, makes this a rich and sumptuous wine.

Jeb Dunnuck (97-99)One of the wines of the vintage will be the 2020 Château Tertre Roteboeuf, which has its classic exotic, boisterous, incredibly sexy personality front and center. Cassis, smoked meats, vanilla, graphite, white truffle, and a liqueur of rocks-like minerality are just some of the nuances here, and it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, incredibly purity, building tannins, and a blockbuster of a finish. I followed this barrel sample for just under a week and it never showed a hint of oxidation or fatigue. This cuvée always shows lots of oak (it’s brought up in 100% new barrels), especially in its youth, but it is incredibly well-integrated and largely disappears once at full maturity. Hide bottles for 7-8 years if you can, and it’s going to keep for 30 years or more. |
