Description
“Composed of 93% Merlot and 7% Cabernet Franc, the 2015 Trotanoy reveals a medium to deep garnet-purple color and comes prancing out of the glass with the most striking black fruit preserves, plum pudding, red currant jelly and blueberry compote notions, followed up by nuances of rose petals, chocolate box, licorice and menthol plus a waft of wild mushrooms. Full-bodied, rich and decadent, it fills the palate with generous perfumed black and blue fruit layers with a seductive frame of velvety tannins and seamless freshness, finishing very long and very minerall” 97 pts, Robert Parker
“This wine is rich with tannins and superb fruit. The blackberries and black plums are succulent and chewy, giving the wine an opulent, ripe character. This 18-acre vineyard, with 93% Merlot, has produced an impressive wine. Drink from 2027.”96 pts Wine Enthusiast
“Lovely aromatics of spices, blackberries and violets. The palate is supple, firm, filled with ripe, generous taninns with a grippy finish. This is a wine that will require at least 7-8 years of bottle age before it is ready to enjoy.” Jeannie Cho Lee, 92 pts
