Château Trotanoy

• May 2013

  As you can read HERE, I was quite a big fan of most 2012 barrel samples from ... ... the ticket. For example, Chateau Trotanoy, one of the wines of the vintage - correctly scored by the still Almighty One, Bob Parker - was almost gone before anyone could get it for about €100 a bottle pre tax. Other wines from Moueix in 2012 promise to be very... Read More

     I just posted almost all of my notes on Bordeaux 2012 on my website, and I must say that Trotanoy and La Fleur Petrus are actually tempting me, price-wise, to "pull the futures trigger".  But that's about it.  Palmer, also on my very top list of faves, is just too expensive. I mean, I could get a Leoville Poyferre 1990 for about the same pric... Read More

  Château Trotanoy Red Bordeaux Blend Pomerol 1999

  Snoothrank:

  Medium+ ruby colour with resolving shade of garnet. Clean, developed nose of blackcurrants, Asian salted plums, mulberry leaf and sweet Cuban tobacco leaf. Dry, full-bodied wine with smooth velvet texture, lowish acidity. The tannins have resolved nicely but this is still drinking well with rich flavours of dark berries and creamy cocoa. Sexy fi...

  A couple of news items I was pondering today.First, Robert Parker came out with his ratings for the 2009 Bordeaux vintage. Ever the masochist, I decided to go look at some prices in the marketplace after the ratings were released.

  Just thought I would share three videos on Bordeaux 2010, from en primeur week. I like how Bill Blatch for example lends a certain realism to the tasting experience, although I did not find the wines THAT difficult to taste.
