Note di degustazione
Deep ruby/purple hued, the 2024 La Mondotte offers up impressive aromatics of cassis and black raspberries intermixed with scorched earth, graphite, and sappy, floral nuances. It's medium-bodied, has a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, ripe tannins, juicy acidity, and outstanding length.

With a gentle oaky, spicy profile, the 2024 La Mondotte reveals aromas of dark berries, pepper and licorice mingled with mulberry notes. Medium-bodied, chewy and structured, it's layered with elegant tannins and a lively mid-palate that segues into an oaky, firm finish.
Inky colour, this is a lovely La Mondotte, gunsmoke reduction, cherry pit, raspberry, cloves, white pepper, sage, oyster shell. Harvest 23 September to 5 October. 40 hl/ha yield, 30% new oak. Cold soak for four days, 8-10 degrees.
The 2024 La Mondotte is punchy and energetic, but it also needs to be approached with an open mind and palate. At 13% alcohol, the lowest I can remember here, La Mondotte is driven by strong limestone inflections and brisk acids more than anything else. Élevage will be everything. The combination of the growing season along with a move towards more freshness in the wines here yielded a Mondotte unlike any I can recall tasting. For readers who appreciate technical data, the super low 3.35pH is more typical of a white wine than a red!
