2009 Chateau Tour St. Bonnet, Cru Bourgeois, Medoc
Ripe and rounded with lovely freshness, this is full of mature aromas of cedar and tobacco mingling with savoury cassis. Perfumed and supple.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate
A sleeper of the vintage, this consistently over-achieving Medoc has a character unlike a low-level Pauillac. Black currants galore intermixed with some crushed rock, licorice, tobacco leaf and spice box are all present in this deep ruby/purple-colored, medium to full-bodied wine. The tannins are sweet and extra fleshy, and the wine ideal for drinking over the next decade.
