Friday, November 17, 2023 - Troplong Mondot: 1959-2012 (Stockholm, Sweden): Semi-blind (knew which 17 vintages that were being served).
Dark colour.
Huge nose. Dark fruits, youthful fruit in a big way. Wunderbar
A big bruiser of a young wine. Fantastic tannic profile that with the perfect acidity and fruit co-create a wine that will live and develop for decades. This is tight! And there are also plums and sloe to be enjoyed in there amidst the dark fruits.
This is heavy metal in a bottle!
My guess: I didn't get it right, even with only four choices left...
My flight-winner, edging itself before the 2010.
The first Bdx '07 to impress my socks off! Wow!
