On the renowned Pomerol plateau, Château Trotanoy stands as one of Bordeaux’s finest and most respected estates. Its 7.2-hectare vineyard enjoys optimal sunlight and drainage, planted in a unique mix of deep clay, gravel, and iron-rich subsoils. This rare terroir imparts depth, structure, and a distinctive minerality to the wines, placing Trotanoy among the elite producers of the Right Bank.
The vineyard is composed primarily of Merlot (90%), known for its opulence, smooth tannins, and ripe fruit profile. The addition of Cabernet Franc (10%) brings aromatic finesse and freshness, creating a beautifully balanced and structured wine. Each vintage reflects the estate’s heritage and the purity of its soils.
Traditional methods prevail: manual vineyard work, careful crop thinning, and hand-harvesting ensure optimal grape quality. In the cellar, fermentation in concrete vats preserves fruit integrity, followed by 18 to 20 months of barrel aging (50% new oak), which adds complexity and elegance without overshadowing the natural character of the wine.
Château Trotanoy’s deep garnet color hints at a bouquet rich in black fruits, truffle, licorice, and subtle smoky notes. On the palate, it reveals a velvety texture, powerful structure, and lasting finesse. Its finish is long and complex, marrying fruit purity with earthy and mineral undertones.
This is a wine made to age: its solid structure and refined balance allow it to evolve for decades, gaining aromatic nuances of leather, tobacco, and forest floor over time. A collector’s favorite, it consistently receives high praise from wine critics worldwide.
Perfect with roasted game, grilled meats, or aged cheeses, Château Trotanoy brings refinement to any gastronomic pairing. Discover the vintages currently available on 12bouteilles, the trusted destination for iconic Bordeaux wines.
