Tasting Note

The iconic Left Bank-based blend, De Toren Fusion V is meticulously crafted from Bordeaux’s ‘Noble Five’ varietals and, with its complex flavours of dark sour cherry, a spiciness of tobacco, and a hint of aniseed, it offers a stylish departure for sophisticated oenophilic tastes. This is a stunning expression of a superb vintage as well as terroir. Soft as spun silk, this is a wine that will only improve with age.

Impeccably polished tannins add to the stunning structure, whilst its rich, velvety texture lasts in a prolonged aftertaste. This masculine yet elegant concoction promises excellent ageing potential. Honouring the tradition of Bordeaux winemaking, De Toren Fusion V uplifts the senses with pure indulgence, making every sip a memorable experience. This is wine-making craftsmanship at its finest.
