Product Overview
93 Points - Wine Advocate
"Unwinding in the glass with aromas of sweet blackberries and raspberries mingled with hints of rose petal and spices, the 2020 Mondot is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a pure, seamless core of vibrant fruit and a long, succulent finish. Derived from Merlot growing on recently acquired vineyards on Saint-Émilion's limestone plateau, some 40% of the blend is matured in tank, with the rest in once-used barriques." -WK, 4/6/23

"The 2020 Mondot is more backward on the nose, with an impressive concentration of blackberry and bilberry fruit. Touches of cedar develop with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied and very smooth, though here, it may be a bit over-extracted, which denies the delineation and precision it needs on the finish. Hold it for another couple of years. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting." -NM, Jan/2024
