Ch Troplong Mondot 1962 St-Émilion
15.5
Purchased from a private cellar in Bordeaux.
A trip back in time. Intriguing wine which would appeal to serious wine enthusiasts only. Still has an amazing colour for a 60-year-old wine and the freshness is still there. Unlike the fruit, which left the building a long time ago. Laden with tertiary character, this is still eminently drinkable, although more of an intellectual exercise than a great pleasure. (AWH)
