Critic reviews
"The 2025 Tour Saint Christophe, a blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc that matured in 20-hectoliter foudres, reveals aromas of mocha, spice, cocoa and violet. Medium- to full-bodied, dense and structured, it’s built around a firm, tannic frame with good length, concluding with a spicy finish."
Yohan Castaing, April 2026, RobertParker.com
"The 2025 Tour Saint Christophe has a lovely bouquet with black cherries, strawberry pastille, inkwell and violets scents, fine delineation and well-integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp, slightly edgy tannins, bright acidity and a dash of black pepper towards the linear finish. Good potential."
Neal Martin, May 2026, Vinous.com
"The 2025 Tour Saint Christophe is a stunner. Rich and explosive, the 2025 possesses remarkable depth and pure power. All the elements are so well balanced. Tour Saint Christophe is always a big wine, but the 2025 has an unusual level of finesse. Dark-toned fruit, leather, gravel, chocolate and dried herbs caress the palate. Aging the Francs in 20HL cask seems very well judged in moderating oak impact, something that has also been a signature here in the past."
Antonio Galloni, April 2026, Vinous.com
"Medium- to full-bodied with delineated dark fruit and precise, delicate tannins, showing good freshness, a wonderful silky texture and a subtle saline note in the finish."
Jacobo García Andrade, April 2026, JamesSuckling.com
"Charred cedar on the opening, balanced by lovely grippy tannins, slate and pumice stone, this has plenty of brambled dark fruits to balance out the salinity of the limestone fingerprint. Harvest September 11 to 24. 25% new oak. Yield 27 hl/ha. 3.35 pH."
Jane Anson, April 2026, JaneAnson.com
"Lovely aromatic expression on the nose, perfumed bramble and summer berry fruit combined. Crisp but sun-kissed, charming, full of brisk acidity and real energy. There’s focus and bite with cranberry fruit alongside mouthwatering blueberries. Feels a little tense still because of the acidity but there’s drive and excellent definition with a grip to the tannins that balances everything out. 3.35pH. A yield of 27hl/ha. One third of the wine aged in small oak vats and the rest in barrels. "
