The 2022 Tronquoy has a complex bouquet that unfolds in the glass, with blackberry, cedar and tobacco scents, one of the most classical styles in this flight. It builds in power. The palate has exquisite balance, a kind of symmetry that reminds me of Montrose. Perfectly judged acidity, this is so precise on the finish and contains the sapidity to draw you back for more. I already knew this was a strong Saint-Estèphe but here it really shows the opposition what it is capable of. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting in London.

The 2022 Château Tronquoy is the finest vintage of this cuvée ever produced, offering fabulous aromatics of cassis, graphite, violets, flowers, chocolate, and earthy nuances. Full-bodied and beautifully rich and textured on the palate, with sweet tannins and a seamless, concentrated mouthfeel, it’s already hard to resist, and as I said from barrel, it shows the ripeness of the vintage while staying pure, balanced, and seamless. It’s going to benefit from just 4-6 years in the cellar and drink well for 25+ years.

The 2022 Tronquoy has turned out much better than I anticipated, bursting with aromas of dark berries, cassis, cigar box and nicely integrated new oak, followed by a medium to full-bodied, layered and elegantly muscular palate that's dense and penetrating. This is well worth seeking out.

The blend here is 59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 6% Petit Verdot, and the élevage was in 25% new oak, for twelve months. A beautiful vibrant colour in the glass with a touch of black cherry. A very pure nose blackcurrant, currant crushed gravel, toasted notes as well as floral verbena and rose, with some lightly desiccated notes, delicately dried fruits which communicate the intensity of the vintage without going too far. This is confirmed on the palate which shows a supple and velvety layer of fruit, grained with charming structural elements, very finely knit and powdery tannins and fresh acidity, with an energy to the structure which only comes out on the finish. Real harmony here, the tannins firm but polished, and it is long too. This is excellent and sure to be good value. Made by Yves Delsol, the Tronquoy winemaker, who is set to retire soon. The alcohol is 14.5% on the label, 14.7% in the wine.

Gorgeous aromatics, silky tannins, great waves of cocoa bean and plum puree, slow burn on the opening, then the fruit slowly expands throughout the mid palate, strong floral quality on the nose, peony and iris, this is a good vintage of Tronquoy, modern, hard to argue with. Clear tannic grip, give it a few years in bottle.
