Tasted at the Trotanoy dinner at Sketch in London. This 1934 Trotanoy is a remarkably good showing for such an old Pomerol, this from a period where Trotanoy had lost some of its luster from the halcyon days of the late 19th century. It has a simple leathery nose: tertiary and rustic, but not unpleasant. Fungal aromas develop with time. The palate is medium-bodied with tobacco infused black fruit. Texturally, there feels to be dominant Merlot in the blend and perhaps some chaptalization on the blunt finish. Not bad at all, though it is certainly fraying at the edges. Tasted September 2012.
