The Story

Southeast of the Mondot hill, overlooking the town of St. Emilion lies Chateau Troplong Mondot. Named for its location and its former proprietor, Gerus Troplong, this estate has been home to viticulture since 1745. Its 33 hectare vineyard is planted to 90% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. "Cold," late-ripening soils produce one of the most dramatic wines of the appellation: an exotic, flashy, modern Saint-Emilion.

Written Notes

The 2004 Troplong Mondot exhibits a dark colour with light purple glints. The nose is powerful and harmonious with spicy, floral notes mingling with red berry fruit aromas and a touch of liquorice that is characteristic of the terroir. On the palate, the wine is supple and mellow, with firmness on the mid-palate, refreshing acidity, velvety tannins and a classy finish. Full-bodied and beautifully ripe, the wine is powerful but very well balanced. A long, ample and racy wine: a classic vintage.
2004 Chateau Troplong Mondot; Ruby, blackberries, vanilla, intense, floral notes, licorice. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, slightly astringent for the moment, edgy, especially right after a 55 Carruades. Good length.
