Love the quality of the polished and velvety tannins. Full, but not full blown. Balanced and attractive.

Exuberant, with lots of violet, anise and raspberry notes that show good cut and drive. The finish is toasty, but this should soak that up. Solid. -J.M.

Attractive floral notes intermixed with some blueberry, raspberry and loamy soil notes are followed by an elegant medium-bodied wine with sweet fruit, attractive texture and up-front drinkability. This wine should be consumed over the next decade. Drink: 2013 - 2023

La Tour de Mons has turned out an attractive blend of 56% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Petit Verdot in 2010. This property has always had better terroir than the wines evidence, but things are rebounding impressively. A member of the Alliance des Cru Bourgeois du Medoc.

2010: A dark ruby/plum color accompanied by notes of earth, licorice, wood smoke and black currants are offered in this medium-bodied, elegant, pretty Margaux. Drink it over the next 8-10 years.

Sweet, round and fresh but not that concentrated. Very drying finish. (JR)

56% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot. Deep crimson. Leafy dark fruit, touch of vanilla. A little dry on the palate but the vanilla still present. A bit drying on the finish. (JH)
