Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, February 2009

Showing better than it did from barrel, the 2006 Trotanoy does have one consistent characteristic that seems to be pervasive no matter what the vintage's style and personality is - an earthy, big-boned, brawny, muscular style. This wine is deep, rich, full-bodied, with loads of meaty black cherry fruit intermixed with crushed rocks, truffle, and a hint of autumnal vegetation. The wine is broad, deep, and built for serious connoisseurs with cellars to wait it out. This wine needs 4-5 years of cellaring and should keep for at least two decades. It is an impressive Trotanoy, but not one for those unable to defer their gratification.

This is a strongly structured and impressively textured wine. The tannins shoot through, giving a sense of dryness. But in the center, the wine shows power through both tannins and fruit, with blackberries and red plums. It has a precision and shape that promises long aging.

Wine Spectator, March 2009

Berry, coffee and tobacco aromas follow through to a full body, with well-integrated tannins and a long, caressing finish. There's a solid core of fruit. Powerful and structured. Best after 2014. 1,800 cases made

About Winery

Château Trotanoy is part of the Moueix family portfolio, which includes Pétrus, one of the auction world's top performers. Trotanoy's vineyards are located on the high western slope of the Pomerol plateau and are just a stone's throw away from the vineyards of Pétrus. In fact, many collectors seek this Merlot-based wine because it is made in a similar style to Pétrus, yet it can be purchased for a fraction of the price.
