Tasting Notes
Jancis Robinson
Score: 16.5 / 20 Jancis RobinsonVery sweet, ripe black fruits on the nose. Solid, fruity, dense with gravelly chew. No artifice. Very nice expression of place and time. Some astringency, but real life and lift. A delicate hand! Transparency. Real delicacy. Very refreshing, with lovely length. But not nearly as concentrated as some. A good starting point for any student of Bordeaux? Even if very slightly austere.
Bibendum
Score: 16.5 / 20A perennial high performer at this level, La Tour de By is classic claret: mid-weight, fresh, gently fruity with good length and fine tannins. Impeccable roast-beef-on-a-Sunday fare.
