The 2015 Le Tertre Rôteboeuf is thrilling, profound stuff and has the sunny, sexy style of the vintage front and center. A dense purple color is followed by an awesome perfume of kirsch, sweet cassis, toasted spice, and graphite. Full-bodied, powerful, and incredibly flamboyant, it still has loads of tannins, a stacked mid-palate, and awesome purity of fruit. It needs 4-5 years of bottle age and will last for 2+ decades.

One of the wines of the vintage, the 2015 Tertre Rôteboeuf is simply magnificent. Unctuous and deep, with fabulous aromatic intensity, the 2015 blossoms in all directions. The choice to harvest late comes through in a wine that is both incredibly concentrated but surprisingly light on its feet. Finesse, class and pedigree. It's all right there in the glass. The 2015 Tertre Rôteboeuf is virtually impossible to spit. Let's leave it at that.

The 2015 Le Tertre Roteboeuf is deep garnet-purple in color with a gorgeous nose of baked cherries, warm plums, crème de cassis and mulberries with touches of rare beef, violets, mocha, Chinese five spice and fertile loam. Full-bodied, rich, spicy and with firm, grainy tannins, it has seamless freshness and a very long, spicy finish. This is wonderfully seamless and harmonious.
