*Vintage may vary by location*

Chateau Tour d'Auron is a small production estate located just outside the Fronsac Appellation, just 3 miles from Pomerol. It was bought in the 1960s by Jean Milhade as a gift to his wife, Helen. In the mid-1980s it was then gifted to Jean’s son Gerard and his wife Brigitte, keeping alive a strong family tradition. The vineyard produces a mere 5000 cases of rich, structured wine per year, making it one of the more sought after values in the region.

Medium to deep cherry red, the wine shows good intensity and a complex bouquet of truffles, violets and rich fruits. On the palate it is medium to full-bodied with tannins that give structure and frame the black cherry and blueberry fruits. Well balanced, elegant, complex and long.

Reviews

WE Wine Enthusiast: Points
Close to the Fronsac vineyards, the estate has produced a ripe, structured 2015. A light touch of acidity and poised black-currant fruit makes it both accessible and refreshing. Drink this attractive wine from 2020.
