Note di degustazione
Peony and violet floral notes, raspberry and redcurrant fruits, tannins a little austere right now but this has great structure and depth to the flavours. Of the recent vintages, I recommend the 2014 for the next few years, and only then head to the 2015, which could do with a little longer in bottle to soften and open. 40% new oak.

The 2015 Tour-Martillac was impressive from barrel and that is translated into bottle. It has a much more attractive bouquet than the 2015 Olivier with crushed strawberry, briary and warm gravel aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, a fine bead of acidity, fresh and classic in style with an earthy and quite persistent finish. Excellent. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
Tasted blind. Not that expressive on the nose. Really quite oily and simple but OK for early drinking. (JR)
54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot. Short, cool ripening season. Lustrous ruby. A little sweet but pleasing in the short to medium term, with tea-leaf aromas. A bit angular and empty on the finish to be super-critical. (JR)
