Château Tour de Capet Saint-Émilion Grand Cru 2019 — an elegant, Merlot-led Right Bank Bordeaux.
On the limestone-rich slopes near the Dordogne, Château Tour de Capet crafts its Grand Cru from Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Organically-minded and hand-harvested, the 2019 is aged 18 months in oak for depth and finesse.
Full-bodied, smooth and velvety, with balanced acidity and a fine mineral thread from the limestone soils. Blackberry and dark fruit meet truffle, cedar and a lingering, elegant finish.
