Château Tour Baladoz (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Chocolate covered, black cherries, licorice, espresso, and black raspberries are readily apparent in the perfume, and on the palate. Medium-bodied, creamy, and vibrant, the fruits are a bit extracted, leaving you with a lot of juice, but a sense of dryness in the finish as well.

2014
Château Tour Baladoz (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Fully-developed, bright, crisp, red berry character with a bit too much freshness to all of its strawberry and red plum fruits. Time is not going to add anything positive here, so if you have a bottle, drink up before the fruit continues to fade. Subsequent vintages, starting with 2015 have all been better. Drink from 2023-2025. 1,925 Views Tasted Dec 23, 2022 |
