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
Vedette infaillible de Saint-Emilion depuis deux décennies, le Château Troplong-Mondot confirme avec chaque millésime le bien-fondé de son statut de Premier Grand Cru Classé. Positionné au nord-est de l’appellation, il compte 33 hectares de vignes sur un beau terroir le long des coteaux de Mondot. L’encépagement privilégie le merlot, ce que ne manquent pas de refléter les cuvées du domaine, aux caractères amples, riches, ronds et charnus. Depuis les années 1980, Christine Valette et son mari Xavier Pariente n’ont pas lésiné sur leurs efforts pour rehausser le niveau des pratiques viticoles et œnologiques. Les raisins sont désormais récoltés à la main et font l’objet de rituels méticuleux au niveau du tri. Ils sont fermentés en cuves inox thermo-régulées avant d’être élevés en barriques de chêne français neuves pendant 18 mois. Les résultats parlent d’eux-mêmes. L’impressionnant grand vin, le Troplong-Mondot, est le fruit d’un assemblage à la fois corpulent et raffiné de merlot, cabernet-sauvignon et cabernet franc.
