The Little Brother with Big Ambitions.

A stunning introduction to the Troplong Mondot style, the 2019 Mondot delivers Saint-Émilion’s signature plush fruit with a modern, polished touch. The nose opens with ripe black cherry, plum and violets, laced with subtle mocha and graphite. The palate is generous yet composed, velvety Merlot fruit layered over fine, chalk-textured tannins, lifted by a fresh mineral edge from the limestone plateau. Juicy, supple and beautifully balanced, it shows real depth and pedigree for a second wine, finishing long, pure and quietly luxurious.

For when: you want Grand Cru character without the ceremony.
Pairs with: duck breast, wild mushroom risotto, or roast beef with thyme.
If this wine were a mood, it’d be smart-casual at its finest, relaxed, confident, impeccably tailored.

Château Troplong Mondot is one of Saint-Émilion’s most prestigious Premier Grand Cru Classé estates, perched high on the limestone plateau overlooking the village. Its vineyards, cultivated since the 18th century, are among the appellation’s highest and most prized, producing wines of richness, texture and unmistakable terroir character. Under the direction of Aymeric de Gironde, the estate has embraced a more refined, terroir-driven style, combining precision viticulture with gravity-flow winemaking and organic principles.

Mondot is the château’s second label, crafted predominantly from Merlot growing on the upper slopes and younger vines, with a touch of Cabernet Franc for lift and spice. The 2019 vintage, warm, ripe and beautifully balanced, showcases Troplong Mondot’s finesse in a more approachable form: a wine that mirrors the estate’s elegance, but invites you to enjoy it sooner rather than later.
