The elegance and power of an exceptional Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé
The estate
On the right bank of Bordeaux, where most of estates do not exceed 10 hectares, Château Troplong Mondot boasts one of the largest estates in the Saint-Émilion appellation. Founded in 1700, the Premier Grand Cru Classé Château Troplong Mondot produces one of the most beloved wines of Saint-Émilion.
The vineyard
A benchmark among the finest wines in Saint-Emilion, Château Troplong Mondot watches over a 43-hectare vineyard, all in on piece, that is poised at an altitude of 110 metres. The vineyard is entirely managed using integrated viticultural practices. The vines are 30 years old on average and are cultivated on clay-limestone soils, a typical feature of the appellation.

Château Troplong Mondot 2010: Characteristics and tasting tips
The tasting
Colour
A beautiful garnet-red colour with a fine amber border.
Nose
The rich and complex nose blends fruity (black fruits) and mentholated fragrances with smoky and liquorice notes.
Palate
Powerful, concentrated and full-bodied, the palate is seduced by this wine’s full and velvety tannins that stretch to a long and generous finish. A great wine for ageing
