Description
In 1985, Troplong Mondot's policy of searching for new levels of quality in its wine led to the introduction of added rigor in the selection process for its top wine. This resulted in the birth of the estate's other wine Mondot, which over the ensuing years has become established as a great growth in its own right with its hallmark elegance and silky tannins.
Grape Varieties: Merlot 80%, Cabernet Franc 10%. Cabernet Sauvignon 10%
Pretty nose of dark cherries, bitter chocolate and smoke. This is authentic, classic St. Emilion with wonderful flavours of dark berries, smoky chocolate and boysenberries. The finish is austere and refreshing with firm tannins and dark minerals.
