2023 Chateau Troplong Mondot Premier Grand Cru Classe B, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 1x750ml

Vinous 91

This charming 2023 Chardonnay is fine and fresh, with chalky, citrus aromas topped with honeydew melon and spicy oak. Thanks to the vintage, it is a lighter-weight style with solid complexity, but it is best enjoyed young. [Angus Hughson, 11/05/2024]

Anticipated maturity: 2024-2027

Robert Parker 95-97

A blend of 84% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc, the 2023 Troplong Mondot unwinds in the glass with aroma of black raspberries, mulberries and cherries mingled with notions of iris, licorice, black tea and spices. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, it’s textural and mouthfilling, with the mid-palate density so typical of this terroir, its concentrated core of fruit framed by beautifully polished tannins and succulent acids.
