ABOUT THE VINEYARD
Château des Tours is found in Sarrians, a small village located betwixt Châteaneuf-du-Pape and Vacqueyras. The vineyard is operated by Emmanuel Reynaud, a fourth-generation winemaker who inherited the property and business from his uncle Jacques in 1997. Château des Tours places a great deal of emphasis on aged grenache vines, ensuring that what the produce lacks in colour is more than made up in intensity of flavour and scent.
