Well made. You either enjoy this buttery style of California Chardonnay or you don't. Rombauer-lite.

This is one of those so-called nouveaux Bordeaux, meaning that your mouth won't be coated with sediment and you can actually taste the fruit without immediately being hit by lingering elements of clay soil.
Deep, rich, serious and satisfying.
Château Tour Saint-Christophe helps to pull me back to Bordeaux, giving me a reason to not give up on the region, to continue to sample instead of switching my allegiance to Australia, California or Washington wines.
Merci beaucoup.

Damn good wine.
There are lots of other reviews, all of them valid.
If you didn't buy upon release, too late.
For you, considering a future vintage, this is relevant, the past is indicative, and this is a very solid wine.

3/29/2020 5:30:00 AM - Thanks for your note! I feel fortunate to have discovered Bedrock when I was living in the Bay Area ten years ago and have built up quite a stock in the cellar. I love that Morgan, Chris, and their team make consistently delicious wines while preserving and restoring historic vineyards. It makes for wines that satisfy my tastebuds, brain, and soul.
