Succulent dark plum and blackberry flow through Chateau Trotanoy 2021, framed by cocoa, toasted hazelnut and a subtle saline bite that gives real precision and lift. The palate is medium-bodied yet concentrated, with finely woven, firm tannins and a long, savory finish that emphasizes freshness over sheer power—an elegant, structured expression of Trotanoy in a cooler, lighter-weight year.
Roast lamb with garlic and rosemary; Duck breast with red wine and plum sauce; Braised beef short ribs
Château Trotanoy is a profound, Merlot-dominant Pomerol from the Moueix family, drawn from a tiny 7.2-hectare vineyard of dense clay-and-gravel soils over iron-rich “crasse de fer” that are famously hard to work but give the wine its power and depth. Typically displaying deep color, velvety yet massive structure, and complex layers of dark fruits, chocolate, truffle, and tobacco, it is considered one of Pomerol’s top crus and is renowned for its remarkable longevity and intensity.
