Note di degustazione
The 2019 Mondot derives from Merlot growing on newly acquired vineyards on Saint-Émilion's limestone plateau that can't be included in the grand vin until the region's new classification is finalized. Offering up aromas of wild berries, rose petals and coniferous forest floor, it's medium to full-bodied, lively and succulent, with a supple, charming profile and a penetrating finish.

The 2019 Mondot, which comes from specific parcels, has an open-knit bouquet of raspberry preserve and cranberry scents – strangely, almost as if there is no SO2. The palate is medium-bodied, fleshy and candied, with light tannins and a sweet orange peel and marmalade-tinged finish. This should drink well for several years.
The 2019 Mondot is plush, silky and delicious, just as it was en primeur. Bright red-toned fruit, cinnamon, mint, crushed rocks, blood orange and exotic spice lend gorgeous primary intensity. Soft contours and bright acids give the 2019 tons of appeal and sheer vibrancy. Aging 60% in barrel and 40% in tank, is an approach that preserves quite a bit of freshness.
Fragrant plum and peony aromatics, a little closed on the palate, feel that limestone grip straight away, get the chalky edge to the tannins and the slightly austere but juicy slate-scraping raspberry fruits. A wine with personality and one that speaks of its soils. For now all Merlot from entirely limestone soils, but Cabernet Franc may be added in from 2022, so if you like this style of Mondot, make the most of it now! 35% one year old barrels, 70% stainless steel.
