Chateau La Tour de Mons Description
With an intense colour, the wine displays a very broad aromatic range that combines woody, spicy and fruity notes. Elegant and distinguished, this enticing wine, rich in density and concentration with a fine tannic structure offers a fantastic potential for ageing.

Cellar Selection
Situated in one of the northern sectors of Margaux, this estate was created in the 13th century. This sumptuous wine has enormous power that is mitigated by the taut, mineral texture and black-currant flavors. It is a finely wrought wine that will take time to age. Drink from 2024.
James Suckling: 94 Points
Dense and chewy with very firm and silky tannins. Full-bodied and powerful. Better than the 2015.
Vinous: 90 Points
The 2016 La Tour de Mons has a lifted, quite spicy bouquet with kirsch, red berry fruit and touches of graphite. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, great volume and ripeness. The finish comes through more like a 2015 in style with a smooth texture and quite a luscious graphite tinged note. Very fine.
