“The 2016 Tertre Blanc is an equal blend of Chardonnay, Viognier, Gros Mansang and Sauvignon Blanc, which is an idea that the late Denis Dubourdieu gave to Château du Tertre. It is a small 1.5-hectare holding and of course, due to the grape varieties, it must be labelled as a Vin de France. It has quite an exotic bouquet thanks to the Viognier: peach skin, nectarine and orange blossom. The palate is well balanced with fresh acidity, touches of lemongrass complementing the tropical tones, fresh and lively all the way through to the finish. Just a delicious, quirky white Bordeaux.” Wine Advocate #230

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
