Tasting commentary
This bold vintage of Château La Tour Blanche reveals a delicate balance between flowers, fruits and spices. The wine opens with subtle and fresh notes, the evolution offers us discreet notes of eucalyptus then gradually yellow fruits accompanied by refreshing zest notes inspired by clementine. The mouth guided by freshness is delicately coated with a controlled liqueur. The perception is voluptuous and gives off tasty notes, mixing the sweetness of apricot with the exoticism of pineapple while recalling the delicacy of bourbon vanilla and the brightness of citrus that accompany the final. elegant, tasty and persistent in itself qualifiers that fit well into the continuity of the unique style of Château la Tour Blanche.
