Aromas of blackberries, licorice and spices. Full-bodied, dense and layered. Shows the structure and muscle of this estate. Needs time to soften and come together. Serious. Try in 2021.
A blend of 55% Merlot, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc, the 2015 Tronquoy-Lalande has a deep garnet color. It strolls effortlessly out of the glass with open-knit scents of raspberry preserves, kirsch, and warm cassis, plus wafts of dried roses, bay leaves, and dusty soil. The medium-bodied palate is soft and refreshing, delivering delicate red berry preserves and earthy layers with a savory lift on the finish. 2022-2031

Dark garnet. Round and fresh and very appetising in contrast to the 2018! A real success. Long and fresh. Tasting really well already. GV? (JR)
While a step back from the sensational looking 2016, the 2015 Tronquoy Lalande is nevertheless a smokin’ good bottle of wine. Plums, graphite, earth and smoked herb notes all flow to a medium to full-bodied, nicely concentration, plump, rounded 2015 that’s a huge success for the northern Médoc in 2015. Give it a few years and enjoy over the following two decades. 2021 - 2041
