Tax included
A complex and opulent Saint-Émilion wine, with aromas of black fruits, smoked meats, and truffles. Fresh, long finish.
Winemaker and Vineyard: Château Troplong Mondot is located on the Saint-Émilion plateau and is renowned for its deep, complex wines. With a 33-hectare vineyard primarily planted with Merlot, this estate employs both traditional and modern methods to express the best of its terroir.
Tasting: Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Troplong Mondot is a little closed to begin, soon unfurling to reveal expanding notions of warm blackberries, wild blueberries and licorice plus hints of smoked meats, black olives, pencil shavings and truffles. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is packed mouth-coating black fruits, exploding into loads of earthy sparks with a soft, velvety texture from ripe, rounded tannins. It finishes with spectacular freshness and loads of layers. robertparker.com (03.16.2020)
