Marks and reviews

Weinwisser

Medium garnet-purple. Fresh, slightly herbal bouquet, notes of rhubarb and red currants, a rather slender attack. Elegant, easy-drinking palate, once again an acidity in the extract, slightly rough-edged, better than before, but not really good yet.

René Gabriel

The first vintage under the new “shorter” name, overseen by the Cheval Blanc team. The estate was called La Tour du Pin Figeac Moueix up to the 2005 vintage. Medium garnet-purple. Fresh, slightly herbal bouquet, notes of rhubarb, red currants, a rather slender entry. Elegant, easy-drinking palate, again with a clearly noticeable acidity in the extract, slightly rough-edged; better than before but not yet truly good.

André Kunz

Sweet, fragrant bouquet with raspberries and vanilla. Light, fruity, silky, sweet palate with fresh fruit and fine tannins. Long, sweet finish. 16/20 2011 - 2020

News: this vineyard, adjacent to Cheval Blanc, was purchased in July 2006 by Albert Frères. It was called La Tour du Pin Moueix and has just been renamed La Tour du Pin. At last, purity; at last, good balance on the palate. A juicy, caressing wine, with good body, and moreover flavorful and aromatic. The most discerning among you will notice tannins that could still be improved.

Description

The complexity of a great Saint-Émilion wine

A beautiful cru from the prestigious Saint-Émilion appellation on the right bank of the Bordeaux region, Château La Tour du Pin captivates with its elegant, refined, and smooth style.

The estate, acquired in 2006 by Château Cheval Blanc, oversees an exceptional vineyard located not far from Pomerol, on a beautiful clay-gravel and clay-siliceous terroir made up of 11 hectares of vines.

Showcasing all the typicity of a great Saint-Émilion, Château La Tour du Pin 2006 displays superb aromatic complexity, blending notes of black fruit with more evolved aromas evoking scents of forest floor and leather. On the palate, the wine is guided by the velvety texture of its generous, wonderfully refined character. A complex and elegant Saint-Émilion.
