Typically for the region, Merlot is the dominant grape variety. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc are also used in smaller proportions. Troplong Mondot is classified as Premier Grand Cru Classé B in the Saint-Émilion classification. This was most recently updated in 2012. Under the previous owners, and their consultant winemaker Michel Rolland, the wine was known for its deep color, concentration and full bodied style. However in 2017 the estate was sold. The new owners, the French Insurance group SOCR, brought in Aymeric de Gironde – formerly of Pichon Baron and Cos d'Estournel – to manage the estate, with new winemaking consultants. Many changes have been implemented. Two neighboring vineyard parcels have been added. Six hectares (15 acres) were acquired from Clos Labarde and 4ha (10 acres) from Bellisle Mondot. Initially these will contribute to the second wine, Mondot. The pre existing vineyards cover 33 hectares (81.5 acres). Soils are well draining limestone and clay, interspersed with chalk and flint. Troplong Mondot has a cooler climate, at a higher elevation, than most of Saint-Émillon. Under the previous owners it was one of the last to harvest grapes each year. The fruit will now be picked earlier, and previous extraction techniques replaced by more traditional processes. The grand vin is matured in 60 percent new oak which is untoasted, to deliver a less overtly oaky style than before. Positive reports of the 2018 suggest the wine will become fresher with more mineral characters, while retaining a silky texture.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-12T17:44:05-05:00","created_at":"2023-01-11T09:05:43-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","nini1101","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Troplong Mondot","Region_Saint-Emilion","Source_CanaWine0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":196800,"price_min":196800,"price_max":196800,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42674945818762,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2010 | Chateau Troplong Mondot | St. Emilion","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":196800,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_a7444495-e8e2-42eb-b7f6-f90992476d25.png?v=1673446141"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_a7444495-e8e2-42eb-b7f6-f90992476d25.png?v=1673446141","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2010 | Chateau Troplong Mondot | St. Emilion at CaskCartel.com","id":23952313974922,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.384,"height":578,"width":222,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_a7444495-e8e2-42eb-b7f6-f90992476d25.png?v=1673446141"},"aspect_ratio":0.384,"height":578,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_a7444495-e8e2-42eb-b7f6-f90992476d25.png?v=1673446141","width":222}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2010 | Chateau Troplong Mondot | St. Emilion\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA very concentrated wine with such a stylish feel.
