Tertre Roteboeuf 2010 is a full-bodied, Merlot-based red wine from the St-Emilion appellation of Bordeaux. Le Tertre Roteboeuf is one of the unsung stars of St-Émilion often overlooked in favour of its more glamorous neighbours, yet since 1989, this 6-hectare estate has been producing some of the appellation’s finest wines. On the 2010. "While I don`t think the 2010 Château Tertre Roteboeuf matches the 2005 (or 2016), it`s a brilliant Saint-Emilion that offers textbook Tertre notes of cassis, spicy wood, graphite, white truffle, sappy tobacco, and earth. Taking lots of air to open up and integrate its ample tannins, this beauty is full-bodied, has a seamless, layered texture, flawless balance, and a rock star of a finish. It`s beautifully done and just now at the early stages of its prime drink window. It needs at least 2-3 hours in a decanter at this stage (and was even better on the second day)." Jeb Dunnuck, 2021
