L`Esperance de Trotanoy 2010 is the second wine of the esteemed Château Trotanoy in Pomerol. This vintage is predominantly Merlot, complemented by a smaller proportion of Cabernet Franc. The wine displays a profile of black fruits, earthy tones and hints of cocoa, all enveloped in a firm structure. The grapes are sourced from younger vines that benefit from the estate’s clay and gravel soils. The 2010 vintage suggests excellent cellaring potential.

Chateau Trotanoy
World Class Pomerol
One of Pomerol's leading estates, Trotanoy was purchased by the Mouiex family in the mid-1950s. Farming around eight hectares of vines around a kilometre away from Petrus, the Trotanoy plantings are 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc on clay and gravel soils. The grapes are hand-harvested before being pressed and fermented in concrete vats. Maturation takes place in oak barriques, around 75% of which are new, for 18 months before being bottled unfiltered.
The wine's bold, concentrated style is a favourite with critics and connoisseurs alike with The Wine Advocate's Robert Parker dubbing Trotanoy "one of my favourite estates".
