Château Le Tertre Roteboeuf is one of Bordeaux’s most distinctive and enchanting estates—a small, amphitheater-shaped vineyard producing wines of extraordinary depth. The 2008 vintage captures the essence of this terroir with breathtaking precision. From the first swirl, it reveals aromas of ripe plum, blackberry, mocha, and exotic spice, followed by a silky, layered palate that balances richness with remarkable freshness. Aged gracefully, it now sits at the perfect moment of maturity, offering everything you want from quintessential Saint-Émilion.
With its small production and cult following, Le Tertre Roteboeuf has long been a favorite among collectors who seek wines that transcend convention. The 2008 vintage—available now for $425 per bottle—is a testament to the genius of François Mitjavile, whose steadfast commitment to maximizing the potential of his terroir defines the estate.
We had the utmost pleasure to visit the chateau in 2023, and it was like we arrived in a time machine. We tasted in a dark old barrel room and dumped leftover wine into a drain in the floor. It was void of all the extravagance that you see at some of the other chateaux, but the wines were some of our absolute favorites. This 2008 is showing beautifully right now.
The 2008 Château Le Tertre Roteboeuf is a sensual and expressive Saint-Émilion that balances power with precision. Layers of ripe blackberry, plum, and red cherry unfold into notes of cocoa, espresso, and exotic spice, framed by silky tannins and a lingering, mineral-driven finish. Now beautifully mature, it retains remarkable freshness and depth, offering both opulence and finesse in equal parts.
Perfect alongside dishes like dry-aged ribeye, duck breast with cherry reduction, or truffle-infused mushroom risotto, where its depth and aromatic complexity can truly shine.
