Château La Tour De By 2012

This majors on end of summer brambly hedgerow fruits and touches of caramel. 2012 is a vintage that's often opened at the estate right now, and it certainly seems evident that this will be ready sooner and last for less time than the 2011. Despite this, it's suave, open and enjoyable. They pushed the extraction less in 2012 as it rained a lot at the end of harvest, so they needed to be careful. Drinking window: 2018-2025. Score - 90.
