Gouté aujourd'hui avec mon ami Watchelover, non seulement le plus grand Trotanoy jamais fait mais à mon avis le plus grand Bordeaux de 2020 avec Lafleur. Immense.

As good as this was from barrel, it is even better in the bottle! The array of black and dark red fruits, with nuances of flowers, chocolate, licorice, wet earth and spice in the perfume lets you know you are in for something special. This wine is what hedonism is all about. Sensuous, silky, polished, fresh and opulent, texturally, this is off the charts. The wine tastes and feels like the fruits were drenched in velvet, infused with dark chocolate and then polished, making this effortless to drink. The seamless finish hits the 60 second mark. Clearly, this is a legend in the making. If you are a fan of Trotanoy and you have the extra income, run, do not walk and grab some, as not much was made and it is only going to become more expensive from here. Drink from 2025-2060.

97-99 vvPunkte (100% Merlot, 50% Neuholz) Tiefgründige, dunkelfruchtige Nase, noch deutlich vom Ausbau geprägt, zeigt einerseits eine warme Frucht und viel Lakritze, Kaffee, dann auch Noten von Veilchen und dahinter mineralische, kühle Töne, ein spannender Mix von Welten. Im Gaumen dann mit viel Druck und Opulenz, was für ein Wein, ein Monument, voller Kraft und Energie, mit viel reifer Frucht, Massen an Tanninen und einer sehr gut dosierten Säure, ungemein mächtig und im Abgang von ausgezeichneter Länge hinterlässt dieser Trotanoy Aromen dunkelfruchtige Aromen und eine delikate Süssholzwürze. Verführerisch, konzentriert und für eine kleine Ewigkeit gebaut. 2026-2050+ (Mai 2021) vvWine.ch

Inky garnet in color, the wine is pure hedonism at its best. The attention seeking nose, with its violets, spice, truffle, black and blue fruit, licorice and cocoa is off the hook. And it only gets better from there. Incredibly sensuous and silky, the fruit is drenched in velvet, infused with dark chocolate and is effortless to drink. With a seamless finish that exceeds 60 seconds, this is what great wine is all about. A serious contender for wine of the vintage, fans of Pomerol and Trotanoy should buy this as soon as its offered. It is that good. 98-100

A tad shy initially, becomes more expressive with some aeration.Plums, dark ripe cherry, red flowers, oak and some smokey nuances. Rich and ripe in the palate but fresh and balanced at the same time due to the acidity, and very very long that develops in your mouth for seconds. Lots of finesse in the mid-palate despite the tannins that need time obviously. Not sure how this compares with the 18 and 19 as I haven’t tried them (yet) but this is a gorgeous wine. 97-98
