The De Toren approach to winemaking is like no other. The boutique size of the estate at only 25 hectares allows them to provide greater hands-on care, through every single step of the viticulture and viniculture process, than probably any estate in the world. The result of this is wines of exceptional quality that are a true expression of this unique location where nature has conspired to bring together ancient terroir, cool coastal winds, and a magnificent hilltop location, perfectly suited to creating world-class Bordeaux styled wines.
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.
"A layered and complex wine, the 2009 Fusion V is one remarkable selection that's delicious now, although it certainly shows the stuffing to age well for another three to five years, at least. Forward sweet-oak notes marry harmoniously with black-fruit aromas on the nose. The robust, dense palate offers ripe flavors of cassis, blackberry and plum, with accents of leather, tobacco and licorice that linger long into the finish. Chewy, gripping tannins provide a firm structure, framing the full fruit flavors." - 94/100, Wine Enthusiast
