Tasting notes
"The 2007 Le Tertre-Rôteboeuf has an irresistible bouquet with plush red and black fruit, crème de cassis and vanilla pod, almost Burgundian in style and billowing with aeration in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied and plush with dark plum, macerated red cherries and strawberry. But this is all about that velvety texture and the weight and concentration on the finish. Surely this is Tertre-Rôteboeuf? It is! Perhaps the most delicious wine of the vintage." Neal Martin

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 94/100
Perched on a sun-drenched amphitheatre overlooking Saint-Émilion, Château Tertre Roteboeuf is one of Bordeaux’s most distinctive and admired Right Bank estates. Acquired in the late 1970s by François Mitjavile, the domaine has become legendary for its opulent, seductive wines that stand apart from classic Saint-Émilion style.
The vineyard covers 5.7 hectares, planted mainly to Merlot (85%) with Cabernet Franc (15%), on clay-limestone slopes that provide perfect conditions for late, slow ripening. Mitjavile’s philosophy emphasizes low yields, late harvests, and meticulous élevage in new oak barrels, resulting in wines of extraordinary concentration, velvet-like texture, and exotic aromatics.
Château Tertre Roteboeuf is celebrated for producing wines of richness and sensuality, often described as flamboyant yet balanced, capable of ageing gracefully for decades. Its singular style and limited production have made it one of the most sought-after names in Saint-Émilion and a true insider’s treasure among collectors.
