The 2017 TrotteVieille is a deep, beguiling and super-intriguing wine. Mocha, tobacco and spice start to emerge from the glass. There is good depth overall, but the oak imprint is strong to the point of being overpowering.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Wine Spectator

A sassafras note leads the way, followed by gently mulled plum, raspberry and blackberry fruit flavors. Soft and rounded in feel, with a flash of black tea on the finish. Feels as if it has lost some energy. Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2027. 3,000 cases made.
