Château Troplong Mondot St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

Bob McDonald

Typical Bordeaux dustiness also with aromas of pipe tobacco and ripe plum. From an excellent vintage. Soft developed tannins at full maturity IMO. Not sure of the final breakdown but in the past it has been 65% Merlot 15% Cabernet Franc and 10% each of Cab Sauvignon and Malbec. A good example of a Right Bank Claret.

Magnum.

Really nice but needs more time or longer decant.

Willem Booij

A TM in great shape, and so young! Very happy with this OWC. It’s delivering from te je start to the end of the bottle

Will Beshears

Showing maturity, tannins still there, a bit creamy, vanilla

Jason Chiu

Bit young still but good with lamb chops lots of life ahead

2000 Troplong Mondotte. a nice bordeaux though thin on fruit. i would have liked to see more fruit and more richness. this was thin and the tannins were more astringent than i would expect in a 16 year old wine.

Rob Moose

Started off slowly, not tight but not particularly inviting, but came alive after 2-3 hours open. Was a very nice yin yang with Talbot in terms of flavor profile.

Jeffrey Lew

Love the right bank...
