Chateau
Tour Baladoz

Appellation : Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

Extract from Bordeaux and its Wines published by Cocks et Féret in 1929: Remarkably located on the highest point in the wine region, Château Tour Baladoz offers visitors outstanding panoramic views. Located on clay-limestone soil on the Saint-Émilion plateau, Château Tour Baladoz produces wonderfully generous, aromatic, smooth, elegant wines resembling a “grand premier cru” in every imaginable way.

Consisting of a single block of vines at an altitude of 100 metres in Saint-Laurent-des Combes, the vineyard overlooks the Crus classés of Châteaux Pavie, Bellefont Belcier and Larcisse Ducasse to the south, bordering Château Tertre Roteboeuf to the east and Troplong Mondot to the west.

The owner's pitch.

“The Château Tour Baladoz was the first estate bought by our grand-father in 1950 and the start of our adventure in Bordeaux. The mature age of the vines, the high-quality terroir and the winemaking expertise from the vine to the bottle help us to ensure the nobleness of our wines since three generations. We aim to let the wines express their minerality and their freshness, making them fine representatives of the limestone plateau of Saint-Emilion.”

Wines.

The predominance of Merlot accounts for the wines’ dark colour and red fruit aromas featuring oaky and spicy overtones. The wine starts out powerful and full-bodied on the palate, with a beautiful tannic structure, going on to reveal a long, fresh aftertaste. Beautiful with red meat. Can be cellared between 20 and 25 years.
