Description

FOR SALE; ONE CASE (12 bottles) 2008 CHATEAU TROPLONG MONDOT ST EMILION 1er GRAND CRU CLASSE

Currently being stored at Averys, Bristol, where it has lain untouched and sealed since I purchased the wine en-primeur, from Laithwaites. I can only assume the case and bottles are in perfect condition.

2008 was an excellent vintage for Troplong - as RP testifies below:


2008: A wine of the vintage candidate in 2008, Troplong Mondot's offering was produced from yields of 41 hectoliters per hectare and achieved 14.5% natural alcohol. A classic blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, it offers copious quantities of blue and black fruits, a full-bodied opulence, sweet tannin and a fabulous texture as well as finish. Already drinking beautifully, it will be even better in 2-5 years and should last for 20 years. A great effort for the vintage, it couldn't happen to a more deserving proprietor, Christine Valette. Bravo!

Score: 96 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate (194), May 2011


This wine is currently selling for around £650 (ex vat) per case. A sensible and fair reserve has been applied.

The wine will be shipped directly from Avery's to the winning bidder, on receipt of cleared payment.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
