Vinous
Moderately saturated medium red. Subtly sweet aromas of maraschino cherry, iron and minerals. Suave on entry, then sweet, supple and fine-grained, with captivating, somewhat cool red berry, floral and smoky oak flavors. Not a powerful or hugely deep style, but floral and classy. Finishes with firm tannins that avoid dryness.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2005

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".
