WINE DESCRIPTION
Château Tour Bel Air Haut-Médoc is Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blend hailing from the Haut-Médoc appellation on the left bank of the Gironde estuary in Bordeaux, France. The vineyards are located near the Garonne river, not far from the communes of Saint-Estephe and Pauillac. The wines are fermented in a combination of concrete and stainless steel tanks, before being aged for about twenty months, around ten months of which are spent in oak barrels to lend notes of sweet spice and vanilla.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Château Tour Bel Air Haut-Médoc reveals a medium to deep ruby color.The nose shows a moderate intensity of earthy and savory-tinged notes of black fruits, such as blackberry and blackcurrant, along with hints of cedar and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with fresh acidity and a fine-grained tannins that lend a satisfying grip to the mouthfeel. It showcases a good balance between the fruit flavors and oak influence that intermingle on the moderate length, lightly savory finish.
