This group of Vignobles K wines under JC Meyrou have been steadily building in quality and consistency over the past decade. Well measured but full extraction, with a vibrant but inky plum colour, clear energy, some tight tannins and a high level of black pepper and clove spice. Cassis and black chocolate, good freshness underneath, with rose bud character. 25% new barrels. 46hl/ha yield. Score: 93 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2029-2040 Date: 02 May 2024 |

The 2023 Tour Saint Christophe is a super-sized, explosive Saint-Émilion. Fasten your seatbelt. It offers a rush of dense, inky fruit, chocolate, cloves, new leather and licorice. This huge, flamboyant Saint-Émilion packs quite a punch. Tasted three times, during which some samples have shown a slightly vegetal quality. Score: 89 - 92 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2026-2038 Date: 30 April 2024 |

The 2023 Tour Saint Christophe has a perfumed, floral bouquet that shows fine delineation compared to some of its peers. The palate is medium-bodied, displaying crunchy red fruit mixed with white pepper and cedar. Quite linear toward the finish, this is a finely-tuned Saint-Émilion that should age well in bottle. Score: 90 - 92 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2027-2040 Date: 29 April 2024 |

The quality of fruit and salty undertones from the limestone soil are really delicious and exciting. Medium to full body and very fine, velvety tannins that spread across the palate. Bright and crunchy at the end. 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc. Score: 95 - 96 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com Date: 24 April 2024 |
