The 2022 Château Troplong Mondot is a powerful and refined Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, showcasing the estate’s limestone-rich terroir and expert craftsmanship. This vintage presents a deep purple hue with a lifted aromatic profile of black raspberries, cassis, and acacia flowers, interwoven with graphite, dark chocolate, and a chalky mineral edge. The purity of fruit and precision of expression highlight the exceptional growing conditions of the year.  

On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with an impeccable balance of richness and freshness. Silky, ultra-fine tannins provide structure, while vibrant acidity ensures a sense of energy and elegance. Flavours of ripe blackberry, dark plum, and crushed violets unfold seamlessly, complemented by notes of spice and subtle oak influence. The finish is long and refined, with a lingering minerality and depth. This vintage promises excellent ageing potential, developing further complexity over the next several decades. Best enjoyed with fine cuts of beef, game, or aged cheeses, the 2022 Château Troplong Mondot is a stellar addition to any collector’s cellar.
