Rezensionen & Bewertungen
98 James Suckling
This is a very linear red and layered at the same time, showing blackberry, blueberry, black-truffle, bark and stone character. Chalk and minerality, too. It’s full-bodied and well framed with gorgeous intensity and freshness. Muscular with wonderful structure and brightness. Salty and savory notes on the finish. Try after 2024
96 Robert Parker
The 2018 Troplong Mondot is blended of 85% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc, with 15% alcohol. Deep garnet-purple colored, with considerable coaxing and swirling it slowly emerges from the glass like a waking giant, building to a towering bouquet of preserved plums, blueberry pie and Morello cherries with gentler wafts of violets, star anise, fruitcake and cast-iron pan. The concentrated, full-bodied palate possesses impressive purity and brightness of fruit commingled with richer, riper elements and supported by firm, velvety tannins, finishing with lovely freshness and on a lingering ferrous note. It's a wine that's not just delicious, it's seriously interesting too.

Château Troplong Mondot
Dieser seit Jahrzehnten strahlende Stern von Saint-Émilion bestätigt seinen relativ jungen Status eines Premier Grand Cru Classé Jahrgang für Jahrgang. Seine 33 Hektar Rebläche finden sich im Nordosten der Appellation in guter Lage an den Hügeln von Mondot. Der Großteil der Fläche ist mit Merlot bepflanzt, was die vollen, reichen und fleischigen Weine perfekt widerspiegeln. Seit den 1980er Jahren haben Christine Valette und ihr Mann Xavier Pariente enorme Anstrengungen unternommen, um die Weinbau- und Weinbereitungsverfahren zu verbessern. Heute werden die Trauben von Hand gelesen und sorgfältigst aussortiert, in temperaturgeregelten Edelstahltanks fermentiert und anschließend 18 Monate in neuen französischen Eichen-Barriques ausgebaut. Das Ergebnis spricht für sich: der beeindruckende Grand Vin Troplong-Mondot ist ein korpulenter, aber hochfeiner Verschnitt aus Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon und Cabernet Franc.
