Merchant's description

Château Trotte Vieille, a historic wine estate in Saint-Émilion, has been under the ownership of the Borie-Manoux négociant business since 1949. The 2010 vintage presents a medium-bodied wine with an elegant, soft, and silky texture. Ripe plums and cherries contribute to its freshness and sweetness. With additional ageing, the wine is expected to develop further secondary characteristics, enhancing the truffle, spice, and floral notes already present.
