Château Troplong Mondot St Emilion Grand Cru Premier Grand Cru Classé 2011
The austerity of the vintage gives some tight angles to the tannins, but this is expertly contructed and has decades ahead of it. Expct black cherry, cassis, espresso, cocoa beans, mocha, eucalyptus, gunpowder, slate. Shows the exceptional character of the terroir, and is undoubtedly impressive, if monolithic. Good freshness on the finish, allows you to take a breath. 100% new oak, Michel Rolland consultant. Harvest September 16 to October 5.
