The 2014 Trotanoy has a more complex bouquet than the 2014 Gazin, with more Pomerol DNA in the mix, iron-tinged red berry fruit, black truffle and cedar. Fine delineation and quintessentially Pomerol. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins and harmonious, soy-tinged black fruit with white pepper sprinkled over the finish. This has personality and class but needs time (comme d'habitude). One of the standouts in what is an inconsistent Pomerol vintage. Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting.

This wine is drinking perfectly right now. Had it side by side with a 2005 Gazin and the Lichine was much better. — 5 years ago

March 2024. Finished this 2010 bottle, first tasted vertical w/2016. This is so good. Black fruit, leather. Cabernet and merlot. Perfect blend. — 9 months ago
Don’t think this is the right wine as the wine I tried was 100% Merlot. Immediately hit with a strong scent of black currant before my nose got close to the glass. Taste of dark cherries followed by blackberries followed by soft tannins. Leaves a bit of a bitter aftertaste in n the mouth after a few minutes. A very nice wine for the price.
