🏅 91 Points – Wine Enthusiast

“Rich and elegant… dark fruits, licorice, and oak in classic Saint-Émilion style.”

🍷 Tasting Notes

• Color: Deep ruby with elegant garnet highlights — proof it’s aged like fine art.

• Nose: Black cherry, blackberry, dried plum, with touches of espresso, licorice, and vanilla.

• Palate: Medium-bodied, silky, and layered. Ripe fruit meets dark chocolate, cedar, and spice with seamless balance.

• Finish: Long and graceful with soft tannins and integrated oak that whispers, not shouts.

🏰 The Château with 200 Years of Soul

Owned by the Appollot family for over two centuries, Château Trimoulet is classic Right Bank Bordeaux — 17 hectares of Merlot (65%), Cabernet Franc (30%), and Cabernet Sauvignon (5%) grown in Saint-Émilion’s clay-limestone soils.

The 2011 vintage spent 18 months in French oak barrels, allowing it to evolve into something truly special — approachable now, but with a structure built for the long haul.

🌍 Why It Works

This is a wine that wears its age well. The 2011 vintage is showing off — with just the right maturity to soften its edges and highlight that classic Saint-Émilion minerality and depth.
