Château Trotanoy's 1999 is a vintage for Bordeaux wine drinkers rather than investors – producing early drinking Bordeaux wines – with many great bargains to be had.

Trotanoy has turned out an impressive string of Bordeaux vintages since the mid-1990s - and now sits at the pinnacle of Pomerol producers alongside l'Eglise Clinet, l'Evangile and La Conseillante.

"Delicious, elegant aromas and flavors of earth, mocha, cherries, and tobacco characterize this middle weight, dark ruby-colored 1999. It offers low acidity, sweet fruit, and an appealing combination of accessibility and balanced elegance." eRobert Parker.com (April 2002)
