Chateau Trottevielle

Das Chateau Trottevielle ist ein sehr altes Weingut. Sein Name entstammt der Legende einer alten Dame, die vor mehreren Hundert Jahren hier lebte. An der Kreuzung zweier Straßen vor ihrem Haus befand sich die eine Posthaltestelle, zu der die alte Frau - la vielle- "trottete", wenn eine Kutsche vorbei kam. So entstand der Name "Trotte Vielle".
Da heutige Chateau ist von einem Park und Weinreben umgeben. Die Weinberge überblicken nach Süden hin das Tal und profitieren so von einer extrem guten Sonneneinstrahlung. Das Terroir besteht aus einer 30 cm dünnen Tonschicht auf einem kalksockel. In den ehemaligen Steinbrüchen unter den Weinbergen sind Wurzeln von Reben sichtbar, die nach Nahrung suchen. Trottevielle besitzt auch eine Parzelle mit ca. 120 Jahre alten Rebstöcken aus der Zeit vor der Reblauskrise.
Die Weine von Trottevielle sind für ihre Eleganz, ihre Rondeur und ihre Länge bekannt. Eigenschafte, die von dem hohen Anteil Cabernet franc in der Assemblage herrühren. Dank ihrer jugendlcihen fruchtigkeit und Fülle nach einigen Jahren Reife sind sie bei Weinliebhabern in der ganzen Welt begehrt.

Chateau Trotte Vieille 2015 Saint Emilion

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Trotte Vieille 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

Subtle and complex aromas of dried flowers, berries, blackberries and black olives. Minerals, limestone and rust to boot. Full-bodied, layered and tannic, yet the phenolic structure is all about strength with finesse. It lasts a very long time. The new classic from here... 1961 all over? Try in 2024 and behold.

Chateau Trotte Vieille 2019 Saint Emilion

James Suckling über den Chateau Trotte Vieille 2019 Saint Emilion:

Aromas and flavors of dark fruit, plums, mushrooms, pine cones, cedar and tile. Full-bodied, yet reserved, with ultra-fine tannins that spread across the palate. So layered and beautiful. Hints of crushed stone and deep earth on the finish. Steely at the end. Give this time. Try after 2025.

94 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Trotte Vieille 2019 Saint Emilion

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Trotte Vieille 2019 Saint Emilion:

The 2019 Trotte Vieille is burly, deep and powerful, not to mention loaded with character. Espresso, chocolate, iron, leather, licorice and sweet spice add to an impression of virile power and intensity. Big, strapping tannins add to an impression of muscle. The 2019 needs time, but it is a hugely promising wine. It is also one of the most tannic wines in Saint-Émilion.

Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Trotte Vieille 2019 Saint Emilion:

The 2019 Trotte Vieille has closed up a little on the nose, yet there are still very attractive black cherries and iodine scents on the nose that gradually unfold with aeration. A touch of fresh fig appears in the background. The well-balanced palate delivers pure blackberry and raspberry fruit laced with graphite and minerals. Almost Left Bank in style, this shows great clarity and fans out wonderfully on the finish. Superb.

93 Punkte vom Wine Spectator für den Chateau Trotte Vieille 2019 Saint Emilion

Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth denChateau Trotte Vieille 2019 Saint Emilion:

This delivers a very forthright beam of dark currant, plum and blackberry fruit flavors that show a distinct roasted edge, while singed tobacco leaf, juniper and cedar notes fill in through the finish. A touch austere in the end, though there's depth and length here. Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2024 through 2037. 3,000 cases made.

Chateau Trotte Vieille 2021 Saint Emilion

William Kelly zum Chateau Trotte Vieille 2021 Saint Emilion (April 2022):

The first vintage made in the estate's new winery, the 2021 Trotte Vieille has turned out beautifully, offering up aromas of sweet berries and cherries mingled with burning embers, rose petals and raw cocoa. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and polished, it's impressively deep and serious. It's a blend of 54% Cabernet Franc, 45% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Jeb DUNNUCK (Jeb Dunnuck) : 92-94 / 100

I was more than impressed by the 2021 Château Trotte Vieille, a beautiful Cabernet Franc-dominated Saint-Emilion from the upper plateau. Giving up tons of blue fruits as well as exotic flower and tobacco notes, it hits the palate with medium-bodied richness, a balanced, seamless mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and integrated acidity. It has good density and lots of potential. The blend is 54% Cabernet Franc, 45% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon. This cuvée had some rusticity in the past, but recent vintages are pure class

Für das entgegengebrachte Interesse möchten wir uns bedanken.
Wir bieten in den nächsten Wochen den 2019er Jahrgang in der Arrivage an.

Fantastic texture and structure to this wine with firm, silky tannins that go on and on. Love the crushed blackberries, blueberries and salt. Floral and mineral character, too. Full and tight with great length. Chewy at the very end, indicating real structure. All about structure and length. 50% cabernet franc, 49% merlot, and 1% cabernet sauvignon.

92-94 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Trotte Vieille 2020 Saint Emilion, Trottevieille 2020

NEAL MARTIN:

The 2020 TrotteVieille is quite broody and backward on the nose at first, demanding 15–20 minutes to open. It then reveals blackberry, sea spray/marine scents and hints of crushed chalk and pencil box. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a firm structure, indicating that this is a Saint-Émilion that should be cellared for several years. There is a lovely touch of white pepper and allspice toward the finish. I suspect this is a TrotteVieille that will reward the patient.

LISA PERROTTI BROWN:

The 2020 Trotte Vieille is a blend of 95% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc, aging for an anticipated 16 months in French oak barrels, 80% new. The alcohol is 15%. Opaque purple-black in color, it bursts from the glass with vivacious notes of wild blueberries, ripe, juicy black plums and black raspberries, plus hints of lilacs, star anise and tar with a touch of wild thyme. The rich, full-bodied palate coats the mouth with black fruits and exotic spice sparks, framed by grainy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing on a fragrant earth note.

GALLONI:

The 2020 Trotte Vieille is laced with inky, jammy dark fruit, licorice and bittersweet chocolate. This heady, potent Saint-Émilion is not exactly subtle, but it does offer tons of intensity in an opulent, heady style. The only thing missing is a bit of midpalate pliancy and overall persistence.
