Chateau Tour St Bonnet Cru Bourgeois

Size

750ml

187ml

This is a robust, "old-school" Medoc with a deep crimson hue and a nose of cedar, black pepper, and bramble fruit. The palate is structured and honest, featuring firm tannins that provide a satisfying "chew," rounded out by a core of earthy damson plum. It’s a wine with a sturdy spine and a rustic, savory elegance.

Please note: Due to our small-batch oxygen-free transfer process, 187ml bottle allocations are limited.

Info:

Interesting: Unlike many estates that have modernized, Tour St Bonnet stays true to traditional large oak vats (foudres) for aging.

Did You Know? The estate is located in the northernmost part of the Medoc, where the cooling influence of the Gironde estuary keeps the fruit incredibly fresh.

Pairing: A juicy steak frites; a boisterous Sunday lunch with family.

Ideal for The Architect

Your palate is a "friction-seeker." You have a very high threshold for tannins, meaning you don't feel dryness as "harsh" - you feel it as "satisfying grip." Without that structural skeleton, wine feels like juice to you. You also enjoy Retro nasal Bitterness - the savoury, dark notes found in espresso and cacao. You don't want the wine to disappear; you want it to leave a physical footprint on your tongue for 60+ seconds (Length).
