93pts James Suckling

A second wine showing beautiful fruit and velvety tannins. So delicious and juicy. You want to drink it.

90pts Decanter

A blend of the young vines from Trotte Vieille and what was Ch Bergat. Serious for a second wine with a depth of fruit and fine structure. Tannins present but rounded. Fresh and balanced. Will be good value.

Winery Notes

Dame de TrotteVieille (previously "Vieille Dame de TrotteVieille"), AOC Saint Emilion Grand Cru, 2nd wine of Château TrotteVieille 1er Grand Cru Classé, was born in the early 2000s. Produced mainly from the young vines of Château TrotteVieille, this second wine benefits from all the attention paid to the Grand Vin. It is characterized by its generous fruit combining the sweetness of Merlot and the structure of Cabernet Franc, while retaining the minerality of its terroir.
