James Suckling: 99-100 Points
Floral and tensioned with precision that gives it incredible brightness. It’s dreamy and energetic with purity and serenity. Full-bodied yet structured and polished. Dynamic young wine. Merlot and cabernet franc blend.
Jeb Dunnuck: 96-98 Points
Smoked earth, leather, graphite, and tobacco, as well as a massive amount of ripe red and black fruits, emerge from the 2022 Château Trotanoy, a rich, structured, powerful Pomerol with a stacked mid-palate, building tannins, and a great, great finish. It's one of the few Pomerols that has the capacity to match what they achieved in 2018 and 2020.
Wine Independent Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW: 96-98+ Points
A blend of 96% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc, the 2022 Trotanoy is deep garnet-purple in color. It is typically broody to start off with reluctant notions of tar, chargrill, and wild sage eventually giving way to a powerful core of plum preserves, black currant cordial, and blueberry pie, plus hints of rusty nails, cracked black pepper, fertile loam, and smoked meats. The full-bodied palate is so very taut and muscular, you could bounce a dime off it, delivering tightly wound layers of black fruits, earth, and mineral nuances, contained within a rock-solid frame of super-ripe, rounded tannins, finishing with epic length and depth. This is one for the lang-haul!
The Wine Cellar Insider: 97-99 Points
Lilacs, roses, citrus peel, Asian spice, smoke, espresso, chocolate, and red pit fruits create the intoxicating perfume. On the palate, the wine is equal parts, silk, velvet, lift, and opulence. The fruits deliver purity, persistence, vibrancy, and a velvet-drenched, textual mid-palate, and finish. The wine is deeply concentrated, intense, and light on its feet, making it effortless to drink. The seamless endnotes hold your focus for at least 60 seconds. The wine blends 96% Merlot with 4% Cabernet Franc. 14.7% ABV, 3.9 pH. Yields were were only 22 hectoliters per hectare. The harvest took place September 1 - September 19. Drink from 2028-2055
