- When to drink this wine? : 2027 - 2060 according to the Wine Advocate team.
- Tasted by Guillaume Kelley in 2023: "The 2020 Troplong Mondot may prove even better than the brilliant 2019, and it is one of the best wines from the Right Bank in this vintage. Relaxing in the glass with deep aromas blackberries, blackberries and red cherries intertwined with notes of rose petal, licorice and exotic spices, it's quite full-bodied, deep and structured, with a satiny attack that continues into a vibrant, polished mid-life. .on the palate, concluding with a long, resonant finish.Having seen only 65% new barrels and malolactic fermentation completed in vats rather than barrels, it is remarkably pure and seamless.With the 2020 vintage, the stylistic redemption of this domain seems complete."

SERVICE AND TASTING:
When it comes to serving and tasting Château Troplong Mondot, here are some helpful tips:
- Serving temperature: It is recommended to serve this wine between 16 and 18 degrees Celsius. If the wine is too hot, the aromas can be altered, while too low a temperature can mask some of the subtle aromas.
- Aeration: Like most complex red wines, Château Troplong Mondot can benefit from aeration before being tasted. You can let it sit in a carafe for about an hour before serving it. This will allow the wine to open up and release all of its aromas.
- Wine glasses: Use round-shaped wine glasses with a wider opening, which will allow the wine to breathe and concentrate the aromas.
- Food pairings: Château Troplong Mondot is generally accompanied by dishes rich in flavors. It goes well with red meats, stews, aged cheeses and truffle dishes. Feel free to experiment with different combinations to find the one that works best for you.
- Tasting: Take the time to savor each sip. Notice the aromas, flavors and structure of the wine. Take note of the length in the mouth, that is, how long the flavors linger after you swallow the wine.
It is also important to note that Château Troplong Mondot is a wine for laying down, which means that it can continue to develop and improve in bottle for many years. If you plan to keep it, be sure to store it in appropriate conditions, away from light, at a constant temperature and with adequate humidity.
