A blend of 55% Merlot, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Tronquoy-Lalande races out of the glass with bright, exuberant scents of Morello cherries, mulberries, warm plums and fresh blackcurrants plus touches of allspice, candied violets and tilled soil. Medium-bodied, the palate is laden with expressive black and red fruits plus loads of floral accents and a wonderfully plush texture, finishing long and fragrant.

The 2017 Tronquoy-Lalande is soft, easygoing and quite supple - all qualities that make it an excellent choice for drinking over the next handful of years. This Merlot-based Saint-Estèphe is all about elegance, refinement and class. The 2017 remains quite laid back in style, but it is a very pretty wine with impeccable balance and tons of sheer appeal.

The 2017 Tronquoy-Lalande, picked from 12 September to 3 October, has a pleasant bouquet of blackberry, wild hedgerow and punnets of strawberries. It is not complex but the purity of fruit is commendable. The palate is medium-bodied with soft tannins: mulberry, black plum, and a pinch of sea salt. A fleshy finish maybe just lacks the edge that a greater growing season might have bestowed. Drink over the next decade. Drinking range: 2020 - 2030 Rating: 89 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Feb 2020)
