A blend of 85% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 2% Cabernet Franc, the 2021 was bottled two months earlier than usual after the team felt it had received sufficient oak aging. Decanter awarded 96, describing a wine with so much energy, with flavors that come in waves on the palate, red fruits, cooling blue fruits, exotic spices, flowers, and fresh minty stone notes with a real mineral salinity on the finish. Vinous awarded 96, Wine Enthusiast 96, James Suckling 95, James Lawther 95, Wine Advocate 95, Farr Vintners 94, and Jeb Dunnuck 93. Wine Advocate described a wine of considerable promise, exhibiting aromas of plums and wild berries mingled with rose petals, vine smoke, and raw cocoa, with beautiful refinement, lively acidity, and a mouthwateringly saline finish. The natural density and power of Troplong are a major asset in 2021. These are very limited and incredibly well-priced for the address. Grab yours before they’re gone.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"First Bottle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67558149882153,"sku":"1014678","price":89.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/2706\/8457\/files\/ChateauTroplongMondotPremierGrandCruClasseBSaint-EmilionGrandCru2021_1014678_FB_Rack.jpg?v=1794519682","url":"https:\/\/firstbottlewines.com\/products\/chateau-troplong-mondot-premier-grand-cru-classe-b-saint-emilion-grand-cru-2021","provider":"First Bottle Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
