Tasting notes
The 2019 Château Tour Des Termes is a rich, nicely endowed, concentrated 2019 with a big nose of darker currants, spicy oak, graphite, and tobacco. Concentrated, medium-bodied, and focused on the palate, it has the fresh, lively style of the vintage yet needs at least a few years to integrate its oak. Nevertheless, it's the finest wine I've tasted from this estate and should have 15 years or more of overall longevity.

The 2019 Tour des Termes has opened up since I tasted it from barrel, offering splendid, well-defined blackberry, bilberry and cedar scents and nicely integrated oak. The medium-bodied palate delivers fleshy tannins and well-judged acidity. Lightly spiced with white pepper and clove toward the finish. This is a finely crafted Saint-Estèphe.
The 2019 Tour de Termes is a bit closed today, but it clearly possesses terrific depth, not to mention tons of character. Red/purplish berry fruit, mint, blood orange and spice all come together nicely. Tour de Termes offers a combination of richness and vibrancy that is super appealing.
