Château Trotte Vieille produces wines from Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, in the Libournais district of Bordeaux. The flagship Saint-Émilion Grand Cru (Premier Grand Cru Classé) blends Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon—a composition that reflects the region's tradition of structured, age-worthy reds. The secondary offering, La Vieille Dame de Trotte Vieille Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, reverses the Cabernet emphasis, leading with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc alongside Merlot. Both wines have been assessed by major critics including Falstaff, Decanter, Wine Advocate, and Wine Spectator. The flagship carries an average prestige rating of 93.0, while La Vieille Dame averages 87.3. Saint-Émilion Grand Cru appellations are defined by their terroir—clay and limestone soils that favor the right-bank Bordeaux style of ripe tannins and dark fruit character.
