"A ripe, exuberant, full bodied Troplong Mondot that is rich and sumptuous, almost Californian-like in its texture and flavors. I prefer more precision and lifted character. This is a big, massive wine with big body."

"This is a great vintage for Troplong Mondot with lovely flavors of mocha and cocoa surrounded by dark fruits and plum. A beautiful wine at its peak that will keep for a few decades - the finish is long and the tannins are substantial and velvety."

"A beautiful wine with gorgeous textured tannins and rich, generous palate filled with blackberry and dark spice flavours. Extremely successful in this vintage where soft extraction was key - there is depth and weight but with gentle extraction. Tasted in: Bordeaux, France. Maturity: Young."

"This is a less exuberant vintage than normal for Troplong Mondot. Flavours are more subtle, gentle and the wine is ready to enjoy now. Balanced, elegant red with cedar and black plums notes. Tasted in: Hong Kong, China. Maturity: Drink."

"Amazing concentration and depth in this vintage with plush velvety tannins and great depth of flavours - plums, ripe blackberries, hint of cocoa. Dense and somewhat modern in style with firm tannins and the potential to age for many years. Surprising depth and concentration for the vintage. Tasted twice, this wine showed well both times. Tasted in: Bordeaux, France. Maturity: Young."

"Beautifully textured red with supple tannins and flavours that were initially closed. After an hour in the decanter, the wine opened revealing layers of savoury spices, blackberries, plums and herbs. A classic St-Emilion from a delightful, under-rated vintage. The wine is just starting to open up now but still has a youthful edge. Tasted in: Paris, France. Maturity: Drink."

"A round, supple full bodied Troplong Mondot with an elegant, complex array of flavours. Gorgeous, elegant wine with no over-extraction. The flavours are restrained and layered with a very long finish. Very successful wine given the challenging vintage. Tasted in: Bordeaux, France. Maturity: Young."

"Deep garnet-red. Concentrated nose focusing on oak (graphite). On the palate, warmth, power and concentration. Firm, oak-driven and austere finish with liquorice and black cherry. A monumental wine."

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung, reife Kirschenfrucht, feines Erdbeerkonfit, ein Hauch von Orangenzesten. Weitmaschig, rotbeerige, präsente Tannine, etwas Nougat, es fehlt an Balance, zerfließender Abgang, bleibt kurz."

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, fester Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung, verhalten, feine Gewürzanklänge nach Kardamom und Nelken, Brombeerkonfit und schwarze Kirschen unterlegt. Komplex, saftig und kraftvoll, extraktsüße Textur, integrierte, tragende Tannine, mineralisch und lang, schokoladiger Nachhall, sicheres Reifepotenzial."

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung, feine Dörrobstanklänge, ein Hauch von Feigen, reife Pflaumen, schokoladiger Touch, kandierte Orangenzesten. Kraftvoll, reife schwarze Beerenfrucht, präsente, zart kantige Tannine, mineralisch, der etwas spröde Körper passt irgendwie nicht zu dem opulenten Bukett, braucht noch einige Zeit."

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, opaker Kern, zarter Wasserrand. Reifes schwarzes Waldbeerkonfit, feine ätherische Nuancen, ein Hauch von Mandarinenzesten. Stoffig, feine Brombeernote, präsente, gut eingebundene Tannine, frisch strukturiert, etwas Nougat im Abgang, hat Entwicklungspotenzial."

"Dunkles, dichtes Rubingranat. Sehr beeindruckende Nase mit dunkler Frucht, konzentriert, etwas rauchig, würzig. Am Gaumen konzentrierte rote Frucht, fleischig, verhaltene Süße. Sehr gute Tanninstruktur, kräftige Textur, saftig, langer Abgang."

"(2011) Beautiful quality of fruit here, a wonderfully fragrant overlay to solidly plummy fruit with a depth of fruity cocoa notes, some toast and masses of forward personality. The palate is big and ripe, with a massive backbone of tannin over creamy black fruit. Lots of rich, ripe, glossy opulence here, but lovely balance despite the grandeur and the 15+ alcohol. Delicious stuff with marvellous layers of flavour and texture in a totally modern idiom."

"Dunkles Rubingranat, zarter Ockerrand, tiefe Farbe. In der Nase intensiv, nach Dörrobst, fast portweinähnliche Würze, etwas Bitterschokolade, Kräuternote. Am Gaumen sehr stoffig, fast ölige Textur, süß und kraftvoll, von einer guten Säure getragen, superkonzentrierter Stil, Nougattextur, bleibt lange haften, ein Wein mit großen Reserven, hat noch viele Jahre vor sich, dennoch in einem individuellen Stil."

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, jugendliche Reflexe, violetter Rand. In der Nase intensives dunkles Beerenkonfit, ansprechende Gewürznoten, Nelken, rauchig-mentholige Nuancen. Am Gaumen saftig, süße Beerenfrucht, die Tannine noch etwas fordernd, leicht spröde, feine Zedernholznote im Abgang, braucht noch seine Zeit."

"(2008) Quite a refined, elegant black fruit nose, hinting at a tight, muscular density. On the palate deeply set, with firm, liquoricy tannins and plenty of coffeeish oak and dark, plummy fruit. This is another very big, powerful wine, but I find some charm here too."

"(2007) A very different beast, with big, soft, open and plummy fruit to the fore, with lots of cedar and chocolate and a very come hither appeal. Plush, thick black fruit on the palate, with huge opulence and a thick smear of fruit and chocolaty tannins coating the palate. More showy than fundamentally excellent, but I enjoyed it for what it is."

"(2007) Quite a flattering coffee and richly fruity character. Quite plush and forward. There is sweetness and a layering of milk chocolate smooth character. Very flattering and easy to drink. Good tannins and length."

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, fast schwarzer Kern, violette Reflexe, in der Nase intensives Beerenkonfit, etwas Küchengemüse, wirkt relativ reif. Am Gaumen etwas Dörrobst, enorm konzentriert, Bitterschokolade, kraftvolle Tannine, die für diesen Cru fast monströs wirken, sehr gute Länge, wird einige Jahre zum Anreifen brauchen, Vin de Garde. - BEST BUY"

"(2005) Very opaque with a bold purple rim. Little notes of coffee and chocolate are layered over a bold, intense dark fruit core, with blackcurrant and berries, and a minty ripeness evident. Smooth-textured and quite full, the core of fruit here shimmers through the mid-palate, with a big backbone of bold, drying tannins sweeping in behind adding a dusty dryness, and subtle but persistent acidity. The sweet, rounded quality of fruit hangs in on the finish, in a very stylish wine."

"(2003) Rich, ripe, round and sweet with loads of lush, ripe, blackcurrant fruit supported by charry oak. Lovely palate, with fine cassis and bitter black cherry flavours. Ripe tannins are silky and fine, with lovely balance and length. Excellent."

"(2003) Deep and tight nose that isn't giving a lot. Some toast. On the palate there is an inky blackness of fruit; plum and blackcurrant, damson skins. Very dense and extracted. A bit of a bruising tannic quality, but there is a ton of juicy fruit beneath though to redeem it. Big wine, that has balance and could be very good indeed in time."

"(2003) The nose is quite closed, but there is some dense black fruits lurking underneath. A compact, masculine palate: quite minerally with plum and blackberry notes. A nice floral finish. A good wine for the vintage."
a. 1996 Tom Cannavan:

"Tom Cannavan" ha valutato il vino "Chateau Troplong Mondot" dalla vendemmia 1996 il 01.01.1999 con 90 di 100 punti.
"(1999) Very dark, opaque, purple/black. Nose is quite different. Vegetal with herbal notes, but also caramel, spice and lots of vanilla. Palate is very lush, full and velvety. A big, dark, rich, merlot dominated wine though tannins are vice-like. Long, creamy, oaky finish."
