Chateau Troplong Mondot

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 95

Drink To: 2025-2050

The 37-hectare estate was promoted to the ranks of Premier Grand Cru Classé in Saint-Émilion in 2006 and dates back to 1745 when it was originally part of a substantial domaine which included the vineyards of Château Pavie. It became independent in 1850 when it was acquired by Raymond Troplong. After more than 80 years in the hands of the Valette family, today it is owned and run by French Insurance group SOCR, who brought in Aymeric de Gironde, formerly of Pichon Baron and Cos d’Estournel, to manage the estate and made massive investments in the cellar, as well as purchasing land from neighbouring Château Bellisle Mondotte and Clos La Barde. Château Troplong Mondot occupies some of the greatest terroir situated on top of the Saint Émilion plateau and slopes, at an elevation of over 100 metres (the highest point in the appellation) which allows views of the entire village.

Neal Martin

The 2019 Troplong Mondot is composed and beautifully-focused on the nose, well-defined with vivacious brambly red fruit suffused with minerals and black truffle shavings. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, finely proportioned, fresh yet without huge weight at the back end. This gives it a degree of elegance that is admirable. Charming and with long-term prospects. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.

The 2019 Mondot derives from Merlot growing on newly acquired vineyards on Saint-A milion's limestone plateau that can't be included in the grand vin until the region's new classification is finalized. Offering up aromas of wild berries, rose petals and coniferous forest floor, it's medium to full-bodied, lively and succulent, with a supple, charming profile and a penetrating finish.

Mid to dark crimson. Fragrant and unforced. Very much new regime! Subtle. A sweet ink impression that almost submerges the (not inconsiderable) tannins. Another distinctive wine that gives the impression of extremely careful winemaking. Already delightful but I'm sure it will age well too.
