Estate
The Domaine Tour Saint Michel has been a family estate for 3 generations. At first, Michel FABRE, the founder of the estate in 1930, passed on his passion to his son, Henri. Together with his wife Eliane, he developed and extended the estate. Today, the vines cover 40 hectares, including 35 hectares in the appellation Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Mireille, their daughter, is now in charge of the estate, inspired by the family tradition but also bringing a more modern approach. The estate is located in Chateauneuf-du-Pape, in the south of the appellation.
Tasting notes
The blend of power and subtlety found in Domaine Tour Saint-Michel's, Cuvee des Deux Soeurs reveals a multi-generational project to master the patchwork of geology and microclimates found in Chateauneuf-du-Pape. It opens with aromas of crushed black cassis set against a forest floor backdrop, while the medium-bodied palate delivers plum, cranberry skin, and clove notes.
