Precision work
revealing without imposing
Making wine is, above all, about learning to listen to the terroir—the soil, the climate, and the unique character of each vineyard plot. It is this meticulous, demanding attention—vintage after vintage—that allows us to reveal, with ever-greater precision, the finest qualities of our deep gravel terroirs.
Excellence driven by family spirit
A A Grand Cru Classé from Médoc, passed down from generation to generation, where a passion for wine is combined with a deep respect for the terroir and the men and women who bring it to life. Today, a new generation embodies this continuity, while opening up the château to the times.
Each bottle is the result of a patient dialogue between the land, the vines and human know-how. It’s the ultimate expression of our expertise.
THE GRAPHITE SIGNATURE
The imprint of our geological triptych
What makes a Marquis de Terme unlike any other Margaux is its unique aromatic signature: a “graphite” minerality, reminiscent of pencil lead or gunflint. This singular character trait, which runs through the vintages with remarkable regularity, is no accident. It is the direct translation of our terroir: the limestone in the subsoil brings a saline freshness, the gravel on the surface concentrates the aromas, and the clay at depth extracts those noble mineral notes. In the glass, this mineral framework dialogues in perfect harmony with the brightness of fruit and the delicacy of floral notes, such as violet or peony.
Le Grand cru classé
Chateau Marquis de Terme
An 1855 Margaux Grand Cru Classé, Château Marquis de Terme is structured around Cabernet Sauvignon, which plays a major role in the blend. It is complemented by a majority of Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot, a blend representative of our grape varieties.
It stands out for its ageing capacity, balance and elegance. A true expression of Margaux terroir and Bordeaux savoir-faire, it embodies the château’s strong identity: graphite and saline notes, bright, dense fruit and characteristic freshness. It reveals all the finesse of Margaux’s gravelly soils.
Vision
and wine expression
Its silky tannic structure gives it a unique mouthfeel. Its aromatic complexity of black fruits, floral and spicy notes, remarkable length on the palate and a balance between power and elegance are always present. Finally, constant freshness is its backbone, providing tension and dynamism.

La Cuvée 1762
A vintage in step
with the times
A cuvée in homage to the year of birth of the cru and the historic terroir of Château Marquis de Terme, virtually unchanged since 1762. It is designed to be the purest expression of our parcels, in their entirety, and has been crafted to preserve our identity and that of Margaux, with a more accessible profile that will provide immediate pleasure. The blend takes into account all the château’s parcels to reveal their full potential and expression.
1st vintage: 2018
It’s not a second wine in the traditional sense. It’s a different, equally sincere expression of our terroir.
Vision
and wine expression
With more Merlot in the blend, it’s fresh, round and delicious. A generous fruity expression, a velvety texture that retains the signature of Château marquis de Terme: that delicate minerality, that natural elegance and authenticity.

The confidential cuvée
This cuvée bears witness to the imprint of its terroir, its history, nature and mankind. It is in this spirit that Marquis de Terme has decided to pay homage to them in a limited edition. It’s an exercise in style based on an inverted approach: inversion of the proportions of grape varietal blends and inversion of winemaking methods. A disruption, for the duration of a cuvée, of the Médoc classicism from which the estate originated. Boldness and inspiration at the heart of a heritage.
Produced in a limited edition.
Vision
and wine expression
A very dense color, a very expressive and opulent wine with notes of black fruit and pepper, a creamy and suave tannic structure, powerful and coated at the same time. The wine retains the characteristic freshness of all the estate’s wines.
