Score 89/100 · Drink 2014-2024, Robert Parker, Apr 2014
A sleeper of the vintage, the second wine from Christine Valette’s highly acclaimed estate, Troplong Mondot, the 2011 Mondot is a beauty. Abundant notes of espresso roast, mocha and fleshy Merlot dominate the aromatics, and give the wine a seductive, succulent flavor profile. Medium-bodied and surprisingly rich, round and juicy, this is pure seduction. Drink it over the next decade. It was with great sadness and grief that I learned of proprietor Christine Valette’s passing on March 29, 2014 at entirely too young an age.
