2020 Château Marquis de Terme Margaux Grand Cru Classé

The 2020 Marquis de Terme has an intense red-purple color with pronounced notes of black currant syrup, blackberry preserves and kirsch on the nose, plus suggestions of bay leaves, forest floor, and black truffles. The medium-bodied palate is soft and juicy, delivering a good amount of ripe black fruit without being heavy, ending with a spicy finish.
