Château La Tour de Mons 2024

A Margaux wine combining balance and finesse

The estate

Founded in the 13th century, the Château La Tour de Mons is rooted in the history of the Médoc, with origins dating back to the seigneury of Soussans in 1098. This historic wine estate, now owned by the Perrodo family, is distinguished by its unique walled enclosure, a rarity in the Bordeaux Médoc. Since 2020, significant investments have modernized the facilities while preserving ecological management.

The vineyard

Located to the north of Margaux, the vineyard of Château La Tour de Mons extends over 48 hectares in one contiguous block, of which 41.5 are in production, a remarkable feature in the region. The vines thrive on an exceptional terroir of Garonnese gravel and clay-limestone soils, characteristic of the great crus of the Médoc. The plantings are composed of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.

Winemaking and aging
