Trotanoy Pomerol Moueix 2024

The 2024 Trotanoy, picked from September 17 to 28 and aged in 50% new oak, has an intense bouquet with blackberry, bilberry, crushed stone and delicate violet scents that unfold in the glass. It lacks the aromatic ambition of a great Trotanoy, but the terroir shows through. The palate is mediumbodied with fine-grain tannins framing the mineral-rich black fruit. There is a symmetry about this Pomerol that keeps drawing you back, gaining weight and depth on the finish. Trotanoy, yet again, demonstrates why it is so highly regarded. Drinking window: 2032-2060.
