Chateau Tour Saint-Bonnet

Notes – Chateau Tour Saint-Bonnet, located in the commune of St-Christoly in the northern Medoc, has always been a very popular wine on the UK market. Located next to the Gironde, the 40 hectares of vineyards are planted with 45% Merlot, 45% Cabernets, 5% Petit Verdot and 5% Cot (Malbec). The average age of these vines is 35 year old. A full-bodied and rich Claret with elegant, cassis fruit and a smooth finish. “Reminiscent of a mini-Grand Puy Lacoste with its cassis fruit, attractive aromatics, lush, sweet, medium-bodied flavors, and inky / ruby / purple color, the 2005 Tour St Bonnet sells for a fraction of the price of the Grand-Puy-Lacoste. But beggars can't be that choosy, right? Drink it over the next 5-7 years.” Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 2008.
