Notes from critics
What an unexpected gem of a find. We discovered this wine while traveling through Saint-Émilion and were blown away. We tasted this along with the more renown Ausone, Angelus, and Pavie wines and it stood its ground. Amazing fruit and spice with underlying minerality, and the elegance of the mouthfeel is just pure heaven. This is a world class Merlot by any standard and should be in the most discerning of cellars.

The second wine of Troplong Mondot, the 2018 Troplong Mondot Mondot come mostly from designated parcels and is 100% Merlot. It shows the new style of this estate beautifully and offers remarkable purity in its black raspberry and cassis fruits as well as complex notes of white flowers, violets, and spice. Medium-bodied, silky, and beautifully balanced, it has a terrific floral quality as well as ultra-fine tannins, no hard edges, and an attractive, chalky minerality on the finish.

A really sexy second wine from Troplong with black cherries and stone. Medium to full body, firm and silky tannins and an attractive finish.
