Vinous: 95 Points
The 2021 La Mondotte has a satisfying, floral bouquet, with iris flower and peony infusing the black cherry and blueberry aromas. There is just a touch of wet clay in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins. Crisp red cherry fruit laced with blood orange leads to a poised, citric finish that lingers in the mouth. Whilst not the best La Mondotte I have tasted, at least it conveys a sense of vitality, and it should drink well for up to 15 years, possibly more.
Wine Advocate: 92-94 Points
Unwinding in the glass with scents of cherry, sweet berries, dark chocolate and loamy soil, the 2021 La Mondotte is medium to full-bodied, lively and concentrated, with a compact, tightly wound profile, tangy acids and beautifully refined tannins. Of all the von Neipperg wines, this is the most reticent at this early stage, but all the components for a notable success are present.
