A full-bodied and decadent wine with bold aromas of plums and spices, plush texture, and fantastic persistence.
Winemaker and Vineyard: Nestled at the highest point of the region, peaking at 110 meters, Château Troplong Mondot is an exceptional wine estate in Saint-Émilion. Spanning 43 hectares in one piece, the estate is one of the largest in the appellation. Its terroir is a mosaic of twenty-five sub-terroirs, soaked by varying altitudes, giving unparalleled complexity to its wines.
Tasting: Aged in 77% new and 23% one-year-old French oak barrels and composed of 89% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc, the 2016 Troplong Mondot has a deep garnet-purple color and comes bursting out of the glass with bold preserved plums, Black Forest cake and Indian spices scents plus suggestions of espresso, black olives, cigar box and tilled soil. Full-bodied, rich, plushly textured and oh-so-decadent, it packs in the spiced black fruit layers and finishes with fantastic persistence. (30.11.2018)
Service: Serve at room temperature (16-18°C) to accompany beef Orlov.
