2025 Château Trotanoy | MG

Blueberry, raspberry, blood orange and lavender aromas follow through to a medium body with an intense and energized center palate that gives superb definition and vivid, tight fruit and tannins at the end. 96% merlot and 4% cabernet franc. (04/2026) 

With dark and deep with notes of smoke, leather, tobacco and wet soil, Trotanoy is built in a very classic way for this château. It has loads of deep, intense, strong fruit and cassis and a somewhat strict backbone of deep fruit and tannins. All is very well integrated and this massive offering will benefit from 5-7 years of bottle age.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown: 93-95 Punkte 

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2025 Trotanoy is uncharacteristically gregarious at this youthful stage, bursting from the glass with pronounced notes of plum pudding and baked black cherries, plus suggestions of sandalwood, clove oil, and dusty soil with a waft of iron ore. The big, rich, full-bodied palate is laden with black fruit preserves, supported by firm, chewy tannins and a lively line, finishing long and spicy. The blend is 96% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc. This is aging in French oak barrels for 16–18 months, 50% new. (04/2026)
