Château Troplong Mondot

Established on the highest point of the appellation, it was originally called Château Mondot and belonged to Romain Desèze, defender of King Louis XVI.

It was then owned by Raymond Troplong, a lawyer and politician, who acquired it in 1850 and gave it its definitive name. 

The Troplong-Mondot success story is unquestionably linked to the Valette family, merchants at Bordeaux, who bought it in the 1920s. From the 1980s onwards, Christine Valette-Pariente and her husband Xavier Paliente guided Domaine towards excellence, placing it in the pantheon of great wines.
