Critic reviews
"A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, matured for 18 months in oak, 40% new, the 2015 Tour Saint Christophe is deep garnet-purple in color with notes of wild blueberries, plum preserves and fruitcake plus touches of dried flowers and underbrush. The concentrated, full-bodied palate is packed with ripe blue and black fruits, supported by a solid foundation of plush, velvety tannins and finishes with wonderful length."
Lisa Perrotti-Brown, February 2018
"The 2015 Tour Saint Christophe, which was bottled with 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, has a defined, fresh and lively bouquet with blackberry, raspberry and blueberry fruit, the oak here (40% new from several cooperages) nicely integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine bead of acidity, espresso-tinged black fruit with a tang of Japanese nori toward the brisk and vivid finish. Delightful."

"The 2015 Tour Saint Christophe was impressive from barrel and is equally impressive from bottle. Red cherry/raspberry jam, exotic spice and floral notes fill out in a sumptuous, racy Saint-Émilion loaded with personality. Even with all of its overtness, the 2015 retains a good bit of freshness as well. This is a fabulous showing from a property that continues to improve under the stewardship of owner Peter Kwok and consulting winemaker Michel Rolland."
