Château Trotanoy Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 1998

$635

This structured, formidably-endowed, deep ruby/purple-colored, full-bodied, super-rich wine exhibits notes of toffee, truffles, and abundant blackberry, cherry, and currant fruit. It cuts a large swath across the palate, and possesses copious but sweet tannin as well as a chewy, muscular mid-palate and finish. This is a compelling effort from one of the great vineyards of Pomerol. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2030. Robert Parker

Pure lifted fruit. Dense. Violets, inky fruit, dark plum. Pure and restrained with a salinity and detailed edges. Very good but young.

This is really classy and polished. Graphite and clear blue fruit. A plum undertow and gorgeous expansive finish. Wonderful

What a complex set of aromatics - beautiful but not supported by a milk toast flavor and no structure.

Dark rubi robe, kaleidoscopic nose of blackcurrant, spices, top soil and cedar. Very powerful in the mouth with some VA but not enough to bother. Tastes like a Margaux, better on the nose than on the mouth, but this is a crazy good bottle if you like powerful classical Bordeaux. Its a threat now but might be even better in 5 to 7 years. Top notch and we loved it !

needed some time to show its belly. A very good wine with more to give in the mouth than the nose
