Château Troplong Mondot 2005 — a rich, concentrated Saint-Émilion of power and finesse.
Château Troplong Mondot is a name synonymous with quality and prestige in Saint-Émilion. The 2005, from one of Bordeaux's finest vintages, is a masterpiece of the appellation — grown in the heart of Bordeaux and crafted with meticulous attention to detail.
An aromatic tapestry of dark fruit — blackberry, cassis and plum — mingles with liquorice, earth and a touch of truffle, framed by subtle oak. Rich and concentrated on the palate, with velvety tannins, hints of chocolate and tobacco, and a long, lingering finish.
