The Trotte Vieille 2022 is deep garnet purple in colour. The first impression is WOW! It bursts from the glass with showy notes of ripe black plums, mulberries and blackberry tart, followed by hints of candied violets, cedar chestnut, cinnamon stick and clove oil. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers electric excitement, with super-fine satin tannins and intense layers of black fruit and baking spices, with a long and fragrant finish.
Trotte Vieille has probably delivered its best wine of the past few years with the 2022 vintage. Almost all reviewers agree, with very good scores for the wine. This year, the winery is working for the first time from the brand new cellars that they opened last year - 50% Cabernet Franc, 45% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.

The quality of the 2022 Trotte Vieille took me by surprise, but clearly more diligent viticulture, combined with a new winery equipped with fully 26 vats for the estate's 11 hectares of vineyards, is beginning to pay off, as this is the most complete, integrated young wine I have ever tasted at this address. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries, rose petals, violets and incense, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with a deep core of vibrant fruit, beautifully refined tannins and a long, saline finish. A blend of fully 50% Cabernet Franc, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 45% Merlot, it derives exclusively from Trotte Vieille's historic clay-limestone walled vineyard.

The most structured and impressive Trottevieille I have ever tasted. It is full-bodied yet compacted with a fine velvet texture. Intense finish with super tension and focus. Could move up a notch.

From: You’re Unbelievable: Bordeaux 2022 (May 2023)
The 2022 Trotte Vieille represents the first year when all the Cabernet Sauvignon entered the Grand Vin (5%). Picked from 2 to 27 September, it is aged entirely in new oak. It has an intense bouquet that is well-defined albeit coated with the oak at the moment - this will be subsumed with time. There is an underlying orange pith/tangerine element lending nuance. The palate is very harmonious on the entry with pliant tannins. Very precise, silky smooth in texture thanks to the use of their new cuveries equipped with smaller vats. The acidity is nicely judged, opulent yet controlled with a touch of white pepper right on the finish. Very stylish.
