Château Tour Saint-Christophe is a St.-Emilion Grand Cru, named after commune of Saint Christophe des Bardes.  It was purchased by financier and wine estate owner Peter Kwok in 2012, since which time the size of the vineyard has been increased from 6.5 to around 20 hectares.  Kwok also owns (amongst others), Enclos Tourmaline and Bellefont-Belcier
