Cuvée 1762 is a tribute to the founding year of Château Marquis de Terme, a 4th Grand Cru Classé estate in Margaux. Crafted to express the pure identity of the estate's deep gravel terroir, this wine offers a more accessible and immediate profile compared to the Grand Vin. It features a rich, expressive bouquet of violets, blackberries, and blackcurrants, with nuances of dark chocolate, licorice, and a signature minty touch. On the palate, it is full-bodied, creamy, and structured with silky tannins, leading to a long, savory finish. It is a sophisticated expression of Margaux elegance.
This is an essential bottle for any collector seeking the true, accessible essence of Margaux; it is a masterpiece of balance and terroir expression.
