Saturday, January 13, 2024 - The 1987 Tertre Roteboeuf is a real success, perhaps unsurprisingly given François Mitjavile's ability to transcend a difficult vintage. I'm not sure what the assemblage is, but the Cabernet Franc seems to shine through with a complex, moderately intense nose of coal ember / ash, peppery, herbal, and mineral alongside the lush dark fruits imparted by the Merlot. It's relatively light-weight in the mouth, but it's balanced and a pleasure to drink now.
