Château Tour Saint Christophe Saint Emilion gc 2022 0,75l
Château Tour Saint Christophe is located in Saint-Christophe-des-Bardes on the outskirts of Saint-Émilion and is famous for its steep, terraced vineyards. Merlot and cabernet franc vines rooted in clay-limestone soils give wines of depth and tension. The bouquet shows ripe black cherry, blackberry and blueberry with violets, herbs, graphite and a hint of smoke. On the palate the wine is dense, silky and precise, with firm, fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity. A long, mineral finish underlines its Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé status and makes it an elegant match for lamb, beef, game birds and contemporary creative cuisine.
Eighteen months in barriques and large wooden foudres give the wine depth, spice and fresh mineral tension.
