Lot 93 Details
CHÂTEAU TROPLONG MONDOT 1990

Saint-Émilion. Premier Grand Cru Classé B
u. 1 x vts. 2 x soiled labels

A fabulous example, the 1990 Troplong Mondot is only equaled by such recent vintages as 2000, 2005, and 2008. The inky/garnet/plum/purple-colored 1990 exhibits notes of coffee, blackberries, licorice, camphor, and espresso. Rich and full-bodied with lavish fruit, high glycerin, low acidity, and stunning purity, it is still several years away from full maturity, and should last for another 10-15 years. June 2009 WS 95 WA 98

2 bts.    per lot $700 - $900

Realised: $900
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
