Château Trotte Vieille har været ejet af handelshuset Borie-Manoux siden 1949 og ligger lige øst for Saint-Émilions bymidte på ler- og kalkstensjord. Denne klassificerede vinmark ligger på de lavere skråninger på rene kalkstensklipper lige før Troplong Mondot. I 2020 med rom og svesker i næsen. Rige, søde sorte kirsebær, cassis og sort lakrids. Enorm tæt og rig. Meget intens sort kirsebær i munden med fantastisk syre. Øjnene trækker sig sammen, langvarige, med mineralitet. Denne sorte kirsebær med sursød lakrids. Lang eftersmag, noget skarpt ekstraheret, lidt for meget træ. Ikke desto mindre en topvin. 97-98+/100

Suckling om: Chateau Trotte Vieille 1er Grand Cru Classe B

Fantastic texture and structure to this wine with firm, silky tannins that go on and on. Love the crushed blackberries, blueberries and salt. Floral and mineral character, too. Full and tight with great length. Chewy at the very end, indicating real structure. All about structure and length. 50% cabernet sauvignon, 49% merlot, and 1% cabernet sauvignon. 98-99/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Trotte Vieille 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The 2020 Château Trotte Vieille has closed down since I tasted it as a barrel sample in 2021 and needs lots of air, but this is an incredibly gorgeous wine. Its dense purple hue is followed by powerful, inward bouquet of ripe, incredibly pure black and blue fruits, smoky oak, tons of minerality, and a kiss of violets that takes lots of air to shine. The palate is similar in style, with a concentrated, focused, almost austere edge that carries beautiful tannins, awesome extract, flawless overall balance, and a great finish. While it's unquestionably a brilliant wine, it's not for those looking for instant gratification and is much more reserved than the 2019 at this stage. Hide bottles for 7-8 years, and it should have 25 to 30 years of overall longevity. 98/100
