Château Trotanoy Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2005

$445

Complex aromas of sweet black cherries, loamy soil, roasted herbs, coffee, chocolate, and oak dominate the backward, muscular, virile 2005 Trotanoy. Deep ruby/purple to the rim, this broodingly backward, deep Pomerol exhibits admirable intensity, impressive purity, and a long, concentrated finish. Its character is similar to that of the 1998, but with more structure and tannin. I suspect my score will prove to be conservative after a decade of bottle age... Robert Parker

From Magnum at Lunch at Belair Monange! Took a long time to open, but once it did, absolutely stunning and showing beautiful! Still primary especially out of Magnum, so could use more time in btl. Will last 40 years, so problem..

Trotting around Napa. This is great stuff. A little more closed down than the last 05 I had. Showed more olive and herb notes. Wonderful right bank fruit.

Everybody needs to go get some of this. Sweet dark cherries and minerals. Integrated tannins with great right bank profile. Awesome.

Attaque soyeuse, milieu de bouche rond, plein, ultra élégant. Une main de fer dans un gant de velours. Sans un léger petit côté végétal en finale (par ailleurs longue, riche et par palier) , la note aurait été plus élevée...
