International Wine Report

he 2020 Château Tour de Yon Saint-Émilion Grand Cru opens to fantastic aromatics of ripe black cherries and cassis, along with fresh violets, loam, minerals, dark chocolate and spices all emerging from the glass. On the palate this possesses remarkable overall balance with a gorgeous polished frame that ends with a long finish. This is already showing fantastic today, yet it also displays nice ageing potential. This should provide at least a decade of drinking pleasure ahead

Fresh and firm with notes of blackcurrants, blackberries, dried herbs, tobacco and chili chocolate. Concentrated and compact on the palate, with a full body and firm yet creamy tannins. Balanced. Try from 2025
