"Jancis Robinson 16.5/20
Quite blueish deep crimson. Fragrant, classical 'luncheon claret'. Nothing wrong with that if that is your yen. Far from luscious on the palate, this wine needs to soften a little and lose its rather sandy tannins. But it should be a lightweight charmer eventually. 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot"
Chateau La Tour-de-By is a 74 hectare property overlooking the Gironde at Begadan planted with 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. The wines are very robust with classic earthy Medoc fruit and can age quite happily for 10-12 years if cellared correctly.
