Mondot 2016 from Château Troplong Mondot offers generous black cherry and plum fruit wrapped in notes of vanilla, cocoa, and subtle smoke. Medium to full in body with firm, slightly grippy tannins, it feels modern and polished yet finishes with a savory, tobacco-tinged complexity that adds real interest.

Château Troplong Mondot is the flagship Premier Grand Cru Classé red of this historic Saint‑Émilion estate, coming from high‑lying clay‑limestone vineyards that yield powerful yet refined, terroir‑driven wines. Dominated by Merlot with touches of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, it is known for its depth, dark fruit concentration and polished tannins, expressing both the richness of the Right Bank and the cool, limestone energy of the Mondot plateau.
