Owned by the Gaverina family, Château Tour du Foussat produces this Bordeaux in a classic, well-crafted style. A dense wine, with a medium-bodied attack, ripe substance and supple tannins. A perfect Bordeaux, easy to approach, far from the opulent and indigestible vintages, in an excellent value for money!
