There is something here that reminds me of a top-notch La Mission Haut-Brion

this wine should be drunk alone as a dessert

the 2011 Hermitage Domaine de Tourettes is another blockbuster from this producer

Troplong Mondot - 2004 (750ml) Size:750ml There is something here thatSweet cherry, white chocolate, black currant, and crushed rock like characteristics are present in this medium bodied St. Emilion. Excellent richness, spicy tannin, and hints of underbrush and herbs in the finish result in an excellent rather than brilliant Troplong Mondot that must take a back seat to their other worldly 2005 and impressively endowed 2006. Give it 2 4 years, and it could have outstanding potential. Robert Parker 89+ points
