The 2022 Château La Tour de Mons is an elegant French red wine from Margaux, Bordeaux, produced by the historic Château La Tour de Mons estate. Crafted from traditional Bordeaux varieties, including Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine reflects Margaux's reputation for refined, aromatic reds. Its anticipated aromas reveal ripe blackcurrant, dark cherry and plum, complemented by notes of violet, cedar, tobacco and subtle earthy spice.
On the palate, it is expected to be medium to full-bodied with fine-grained tannins and balanced acidity. Flavours of blackberry, ripe plum and black cherry unfold alongside hints of liquorice, dried herbs and gentle oak spice. Its generous fruit character and elegant structure lead to a lingering finish with savoury complexity and polished tannins.
