CHATEAU TOUR SAINT CHRISTOPHE SAINT-EMILION GRAND CRU 2020
Why do we love this wine?
Chateau Tour Saint Christophe is a bit of an anomoly in Bordeaux as a section of the vineyard is planted on narrow terraces. The site overlooks the Saint Laurent Valley and is located entirely within the appellation of Saint-emilion Grand Cru. The southwest-facing plot over clay and limestone enjoys perfect drainage due to the terraced arrangement.
This 80/20 blend of merlot and cabernet franc is fermented in a mix of concrete tanks and Bordeaux barrels before resting for 15 months in 40% new oak. On the nose you’ll find black cherry, tar, chocolate, spice and leather. Blackberry and pepper dominate the palate and the finish is lengthy with ripe tannins.

Tasting notes:
Allspice, Cedar, Plum, Full-Bodied, Bright, Concentrated
Awards:
96pts James Suckling, 96pts Jeb Dunnuck, 4.2 Vivino (2020 Vintage), Outstanding, Robert Parker, 95pts Robert Parker
"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2020 Tour Saint Christophe stampedes out of the glass with powerful scents of baked blackberries, stewed black plums and boysenberries, followed by suggestions of cedar chest, mocha, tar and fertile loam, with lifted wafts of licorice and cardamom. The full-bodied palate is rich and densely packed with juicy black fruits, supported by velvety tannins and fantastic freshness, finishing long and opulent." - Robert Parker
"So much black fruit, black walnuts, blueberries, wet earth, black truffles and some graphite. Medium to full body with lots of tension and focus. It runs very long with a salty undertone and some bitter, burnt lemon. Yet ever so subtle and refined. Drink after 2027." - James Suckling
Vintage: 2019 | Closure: Cork | Region: Bordeaux | Blend info: 80% merlot, 20% cab franc |Preservatives: Sulphites
