Château Trotanoy--Vintage 1971
12 bottles per lot
Château Trotanoy--Vintage 1971 Pomerol In original wooden case. Three slightly corroded capsules. Slightly marked labels, two slightly damaged. Levels: eight base of neck, four top-shoulder Tasting Note: I remember this dark garnet-coloured wine being absolutely delicious in the mid-1970s, and every time I go back to it, it seems to improve in the bottle. It is still superb, with gobs of velvety, ripe, decadent Merlot fruit, an opulent texture, and a long, full-bodied, heady finish. This is among the finest wines of the vintage (eclipsed only by Pétrus). Given how long it has been able to rest at its apogee, I may be wrong in saying it should be consumed.
