Producer
Château La Mondotte
This up-and-coming Right Bank producer, Château La Mondotte is one of the greatest garagiste to emerge in the last half of this decade. Similarly owned by the reputable Stéphan von Neipperg, along with his several other leading Bordeaux estates, La Mondotte is quite recent to the wine scene. Produced at von Neipperg’s Canon-la-Gaffelière, the 4.5-hectare vineyard debuted their first vintage in 1996. Since then, the brand has grown into one of the two finest vins de garage coming from Saint-Émilion, next to Le Dôme. The superbly well-drained, clay-silt terroir found on this unusually steep south-facing plot has produced remarkably deep and concentrated wines for two decades. Made in the classic Stephane Derenoncourt style, La Mondotte is aged on the lees in new oak for a year and a half, before being bottled unfiltered. The Merlot based blend, balanced by Cabernet Franc offers a desirable lush texture, flawlessly sewn with tannins.
