Château Troplong Mondot 1986

An elegant Premier Grand Cru Classé from Saint-Émilion with a delicate mouthfeel

The estate

On the right bank of Bordeaux, where estates often span only a few hectares, Château Troplong Mondot stands out for its size. Founded in 1700, this iconic Saint-Émilion property ranks among the appellation’s most prestigious estates. Elevated to the status of Premier Grand Cru Classé, it embodies the excellence and grandeur of Bordeaux’s right bank.

The vineyard

Perched at 110 meters above sea level, the Troplong Mondot vineyard sits on clay-limestone soil that promotes optimal grape ripening. This noble terroir imparts to this Saint-Émilion wine remarkable finesse and a subtle balance of power and elegance.

Grape varieties

The estate’s grape varieties give pride of place to Merlot, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. This harmonious trio yields deep, structured wines with excellent aging potential and seductive aromatic complexity.
