Trotte Vieille other_regions intense and concentrated big-bodied flavorsThe 2016 Trotte Vieille is blessed with a finely tuned bouquet of brambly red berry fruit, orange pith and light rose petal scents that unfurl with aeration. The medium bodied palate delivers supple tannins and a fine bead of acidity. Fresh and pliant, with a gorgeous, silky finish that feels very persistent. This is an utterly charming and noble Saint milion. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. Neal Martin
