Château Tronquoy 2019 Saint-Estèphe (75cl)

Château Tronquoy 2019 is a red Bordeaux from Saint-Estèphe, in a 75cl bottle. The 2019 vintage was the first released under the shortened name, the estate having previously been called Château Tronquoy-Lalande. The vineyards lie on one of the highest points of the appellation, on deep gravel and clay soils. Since 2006 the estate has been owned by the Bouygues family, who also own Château Montrose, and it has benefited from investment in vineyard and winery. The wine shows dark fruit, graphite, spice and fresh minerality, with wild berries, rose petals and cassis on the nose. It is medium to full-bodied and layered, with lively acidity, ripe tannins and a long finish.
