Domaine des Tours Merlot Syrah 2005
Domaine des Tours
Nestled in the heart of the Vaucluse, this family estate embodies the exacting standards of Emmanuel Reynaud, the legendary winemaker behind Châteaux Rayas and Fonsalette.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone soils and rounded pebbles in the Vaucluse, bathed in Mediterranean light—a setting for wines of rare precision.
- Winemaking: Patient barrel aging that respects natural rhythms, producing cuvées where freshness meets depth.
Tasting notes for Domaine des Tours Merlot Syrah 2005
Appearance: Garnet color with brick-red highlights and a silky density.
On the nose: Aromas of wild blackberry and black cherry, lifted by notes of licorice, gray pepper and a saline touch reminiscent of the Vaucluse garrigue.
On the palate: A generous yet taut texture, carried by lively acidity and chalky minerality, with a long finish blending sweet spices and ripe fruit.
Serve at 16–18°C in a Bordeaux-style red wine glass to bring out its full complexity.
2005 vintage
A Mediterranean vintage marked by a hot, dry summer, yielding grapes of perfect ripeness, concentration and balance.
- Aging potential: Enjoy through 2025–2030; store away from light and temperature fluctuations (12–14°C).
