Château Troplong Mondot 2006 Saint-Émilion Premier Grand Cru Classé B
絹のタンニンが包む、堅牢な骨格。
石灰質を主体とする斜面畑のぶどうを、メルロを中心に組み立てた2006年。長期の樽熟成が、熟したプラムやブラックチェリーの芳醇な果実味に、スミレや杉、トリュフを思わせる複雑さを重ねます。縁にわずかなオレンジが差し、絹のように滑らかなタンニンと堅牢な骨格が同居。黒果実の旨味とミネラル感が長く続きます。赤身肉のローストやマッシュルームのリゾットとともにどうぞ。
Tasting note
The wine's deep ruby red color reveals a subtle hint of orange on the rim as the glass is tilted, suggesting its maturity. The aroma features rich fruit notes of black cherry and plum, layered with complex, deep nuances reminiscent of violet, cedar, and truffle. On the palate, silky tannins unfold smoothly, harmonizing the rich fruit with the vanilla and spice aromas from the oak barrels. The wine's structure is firm and the acidity is well-maintained, suggesting its potential for long-term aging. The finish is long, with the umami flavors of ripe black fruit and a subtle minerality continuing slowly, leaving the drinker with a deep sense of satisfaction.

The grapes, grown on sloping vineyards primarily composed of limestone, are skillfully blended with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. Long-term oak aging enhances the rich fruitiness of ripe plum and black cherry, with complex nuances reminiscent of spice and truffle. The tannins are silky smooth yet the structure is robust, creating a classic style that will gain even more depth with age. A harmonious blend of richness and precision, this Saint-Émilion masterpiece will add elegance to any table.
