Note di degustazione
The 2016 La Mondotte has an earthy, savoury bouquet with touches of leather percolating through the red fruit. A little more mature than its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, somehow reminding me of a top South African Bordeaux blend (not meant pejoratively, just a stylistic observation), with a touch of cooked meat on the finish. Tasted at Bordeaux Index's Ten-Year-On tasting in London.

Tasted blind. Looks and smells quite evolved. Seductively ripe and velvety even if dangerously mature. Quite a bit of alcohol. (JR)
This shows aromas of truffles, earth, ink and dark fruit. The palate is vibrant, with supple yet precise tannins and acidity that focus the wine toward the finish. This flavorful wine remains youthful, showing vitality and energy with subtle evolution. Drink or hold. 10 Years On retrospective.
The 2016 La Mondotte is open and generous on a nose of intense black cherries, boysenberry, tobacco and cedar. With aeration, this becomes more refined and loses its initial boisterousness. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fine bead of acidity and plenty of sumptuousness, although I find it a little curt and abrupt on the finish, where I am seeking more persistence. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. 16
