AboutDomaine La Tour Boisée
Domaine La Tour Boisée has been rooted at Laure-Minervois since 1826, taking its name from a medieval fortified tower that overlooks the property. Jean-Louis Poudou led the estate from 1982; the Guilhem family now manages it.
East of Carcassonne, the estate has about 37 hectares of organically farmed vines alongside a substantial olive grove. Its wines include Minervois and IGP Coteaux de Peyriac.

Ripe black fruit, fresh plum, black cherry and blackberry appear alongside a dried-hay note. The wine has a fruity, crunchy attack, followed by a supple, ample palate and tannins. Cabernet Franc accounts for seventy percent of the blend, with Cabernet Sauvignon making up the remainder. Grapes are destemmed without crushing, fermented separately under cap, and matured for twelve months in tank.
