Chateau La Tour de Mons is one of Margaux's most historic properties, its fortified manor in Soussans tracing back centuries, and a longtime Cru Bourgeois Superieur. The 2020 marks a new chapter: the estate was acquired by the Perrodo family, owners of neighboring Labegorce and the Grand Cru Classe Marquis d'Alesme — a serious upgrade in resources and ambition. The 2020 vintage gave Bordeaux ripe, concentrated, well-structured reds, and this is a classic Margaux blend of Cabernet and Merlot. Approachable with decanting now, with plenty of room to develop in the cellar.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2020 La Tour de Mons, matured in 25% new oak, has quite a perfumed bouquet with brambly red fruit, pressed rose petal, touches of potpourri, all well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with ample tannins, fine acidity, red plum, cranberry and strawberry laced with black pepper and just a touch of tobacco. There is just a subtle chalky texture on the finish. Lovely." —Neal Martin

Robert Parker

85 points

"Composed of 57% Merlot, 36% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc and 3% Cabernet Franc, the 2020 La Tour de Mons is aging in French oak barrels, 30% new. The alcohol is 13%. Deep purple-black colored, it needs a little coaxing to reveal cedary notions over a core of black cherries, fresh blackberries and stewed plums, with touches of wild mushrooms and tree bark. The medium-bodied palate is a little thin, with a chewy frame and rather short, flat finish." —Lisa Perrotti-Brown

"A majority Merlot in the blend, this feels unforced, with sappy brambled fruits and plenty of hawthorn edging giving fresh acidities. Grilled and bitter tannins on the finish but there is sinew and interest here, and it's a good wine, pretty serious with an attractive edge of smoked cedar. Bought by the team at Marquis d'Alesme in February 2020, this is the first year that they have followed entirely from beginning to end (with the decision taken to keep distinct from Labegorce, as was a question on their purchase, and a full 17ha of vines were pulled up out of 60ha in total, to be replanted over the next 10 years). First time hand harvesting (especially complicated with Covid-19 protocols). 3% Petit Verdot completes the blend. 3.6pH, 25% new oak. A yield of 32hl/ha."
