Chateau La Tour de By Medoc

Bordeaux

Médoc

Smoked caramel and coffee bean, closes down right now, this is an impressive showing for the estate, with clear tannic construction, attractive salinity and juice to the ripe fig and bilberry fruits. Softens a little through the mid palate, but has real charm, showing the benefit of its Estuary-location.

Inside Bordeaux

The 2022 La Tour de By is deep garnet-purple in color. Notes of juicy plums, blackberry preserves, and black raspberry waft from the glass with hints of spice cake and dusty soil. The medium-bodied palate is soft and juicy, with bags of black fruit and spicy layers, finishing with an herbal lift.

Well-judged balance between floral aromatics and berry fruit, and a smoky grilled cedar wave of oak, has a cheerful vibrant violet edge to the colour, but the acditiy cuts things off on the finish. 35% new oak for ageing. Harvest from the 24th of September. No chaptilisation, 35hl/h yield, which is low for them but pretty good within the vintage. 

La Tour de By 2023 is deep garnet-purple in color. It offers only very faint notes of plum preserves, dried mulberries, wild sage, and cranberries. The light to medium-bodied palate is thin and lightly chewy with hardly any fruit or finish.

Touches of brett or perhaps earthy geosmin on the nose, there are dark fruits here and tannic structure but it struggles to reach full ripeness. Tour de By is an estate that can produce wonderful drinking claret in good vintages, but it is a little dilute in 2021. 50hl/h yield.

Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2020 La Tour de By offers up subtle scents of juicy blackberries and mulberries, followed by wafts of damp soil, dried herbs, and charcoal. The medium-bodied palate is soft and uncomplicated, with soft-spoken black fruit flavors and a savory finish.
