Precision is undoubtedly one of the defining characteristics of Troplong-Mondot. The bouquet signals this, highlighting floral and fruity nuances, all with the particularity of emphasizing detail rather than intensity. Slightly creamy on the attack, the wine displays power, finesse, and, above all, depth. Its velvety texture underscores elegance, its tannic structure, power. These elements harmonize beautifully! They complement each other and are perfectly in sync. The wine gains breadth on the palate and benefits from silky tannins perfectly aligned with a structuring acidity that provides brightness and tension. Whispers temper the energy and vigor present, only enhancing the harmony. What dynamism! A fresh, flavorful, incisive, and charming wine. 2030-2060 - 98 to 100 Points - Yves Beck

Picked between August 28 and September 25 (surely one of the broadest ranges in Bordeaux this year, but logical considering the estate's different altitudes and aspects), the 2025 Troplong Mondot is one of the wines of the vintage. Exhibiting a deep bouquet of blackberries and plums complemented by floral accents of lilac, iris and subtle spices, it's full-bodied, deep and dense, with a brooding core of fruit girdled by bright acids and sweet but abundant tannins. A blend of 85% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc, it will rival the 2022, though in vintage signature the two years are very different. - 98 to 100 Points - William Kelley

40% of the wine aged in foudre; dark-fruited, ripe blackberries, blueberries, also blackcurrant, perfectly ripe, without overripe aromas, great depth, with mineral undertones, a hint of liquorice, floral notes; fresh and immensely fruit-driven on the palate, what a delicacy, masses of finest tannins, silky interwoven with the fruit, no wood dominance whatsoever; great length, spicy red-fruited, saline finish, endlessly long. If you still have prejudices against Troplong Mondot: try this wine! A highly elegant Troplong Mondot to kneel for. (Drink from 2032 to 2065) - 98 to 100 Points - Adrian Van Velsen

Since 2020, this estate has been fashioning absolutely brilliant releases, and the pure, graceful 2025 Château Troplong Mondot does everything right. Black raspberry, crushed stone, spicy graphite, and assorted floral notes all define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a pure, layered mouthfeel, beautiful mid-palate concentration, and a great finish. It's one of those rare wines that brings remarkable intensity and depth with no sensation of weight, and this comes closest in style to the 2020. - 97 to 99 Points - Jeb Dunnuck

The 2025 Troplong Mondot is one of the most finessed wines I have ever tasted here. Dark, ample and explosive, with mind-blowing purity, the 2025 simply has it all. Hints of dried herbs, chocolate, menthol, licorice and blackberry infuse the wine with remarkable concentration and pure power. Even with all its natural richness, the 2025 is not at all heavy. A totally stunning Saint-Émilion, Troplong Mondot is very clearly one of the wines of the vintage. Harvest started on August 28 (the earliest ever) and wrapped up nearly a month later on September 25, which illustrates how diverse the terroirs are here. Aging was in 50% new oak, 40% 20HL foudre and 10% once-filled barrels. Tasted two times. - 97 to 99 Points - Antonio Galloni
