Purchased by Jean-Pierre Moueix in 1953, Château Trotanoy has been considered one of the premier crus of Pomerol since the end of the eighteenth century. 2017 is a stand out vintage, and in the words of critic Neal Martin, "The 2017 Trotanoy fulfils the promise it showed from barrel with an enticing, captivating mineral-driven bouquet, crushed rocks permeating the black fruit. Subtle aromas of black truffle and smoke emerge with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with lithe tannins, perfectly pitched acidity, fresh and vibrant."
