The 2001 release from revered St-Émilion producer, Château Troplong Mondot is produced from predominantly Merlot. Reviewed by Robert Parker`s Wine Advocate as follows, `A gorgeous perfume of plum jam, crème de cassis, flowers, licorice, black fruits, a hint of graphite, and well-integrated wood notes is followed by a medium to full-bodied St.-Émilion with superb texture, great flavor purity, and tremendous harmony as well as elegance. Remarkably approachable despite its impressive concentration and well-concealed tannin, this is a beauty.`

The 2001 Troplong Mondot is deep garnet-brick in color. It springs from the glass with scents of Morello cherries, dried mulberries, and fragrant soil, followed by suggestions of rose oil, spearmint, and tobacco leaf, plus a waft of cinnamon toast. The medium-bodied palate is very perfumed, with fine-grained tannins and amazing tension, finishing long and minerally.Lisa Perrotti-Brown15th February 2024

The 2001 Troplong Mondot, which is almost entirely Merlot, has a little more amplitude and personality on the nose than the previous vintage, offering a mélange of red and black fruit, blood orange and a sprinkling of white pepper. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and crisp acidity. It tightens up in the glass, turning slightly powdery in texture, and delivers dark cherries, sloe and fig with good persistence. Like the 2000, this is quite precocious and forward, but it shows more tension and complexity toward the finish. Still solid after two decades, this should be decanted or left for another 5­–7 years in bottle. Neal Martin1st September 2021

Deep purple. Dry wood shavings on the nose. Thick, sweet and crunchy on the palate. Very dry, sandy tannins, but quite lively. Just that dryness. Lovely until the end. Maybe just wait? (JR)
