As always, the 2003 Trotanoy is a meaty, burly style of wine, but the tannins have all been resolved. A dark plum/ruby color is accompanied by sweet black currant and mulberry notes intertwined with hints of truffles and earth. This medium- to full-bodied, delicious Pomerol is clearly one of the finest 2003s made in this appellation, whose lighter soils did not fare well in this vintage. Trotanoy’s clay and deep minerality have saved it. Drink it over the next 4-5 years.
Bricky garnet. Very odd nose. Minty, medicinal. Blackcurrant toothpaste. Neal Martin says big stones in the vineyard reflect back the heat making it a particularly difficult site in hot years. Prunes on the palate and sweet but hard on the finish. (JH)
A little raisiny on the nose. Quite savoury and a good Pomerol for this vintage, with just enough freshness. (JH)
Informazioni sul produttore
Château Trotanoy was one of the first recognised Premier Cru sites on the Pomerol plateau, with records dating back to the late 1700s. Even back in the nineteenth century it was seen as the best site in Pomerol second only to Vieux Château Certan.
