Description
Ch. Tour St. Christophe is a château in St. Christophe-des-Bardes with 20ha of vineyard on a hillside, planted in terraces on the slope facing Troplong-Mondot. The Richard-Biès family has been famous in the wine business for centuries, their savoir-faire is passed down from generation to generation. At the beginning of the 20th century, Denis Biès founded Château Saint-Christophe. After WWII, his granddaughter married Gilbert Richard, who continued the tradition of the independent family business. Now, fifty years later, their son Jean-Claude, wine broker, and their grandson Frédéric, oenologist, run the estate in the same spirit.
The Château Tour Saint-Christophe Saint-Émilion Grand Cru is tight, with a beautiful balance between finesse and focus. Mineral and salty notes come to the fore, with an extremely refined mouthfeel and polished tannins. The finish continues endlessly. It harmoniously combines power and refinement. The blend consists of 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc, which provides both depth and elegance. This Saint-Émilion Grand Cru has an excellent price-quality ratio.
