Juin 2024 (Millésime 2022)(from a whopping 2.02 ha parcel, which effectively means that the domaine
owns 89% of the appellation; because the other owner does not declare their wine as En Virondot, Mollard jokingly calls her
version a “commercial” monopole). Here too there is enough post-bottling reduction to render an evaluation of the nose
difficult. By contrast, there is solid mid-palate concentration and a gorgeous texture to the overtly stony medium-bodied flavors
that terminate in a youthfully austere chiseled and bone-dry finale. This is also tightly wound and a wine that is clearly going to
need at least some patience and I would advise a minimum of 5 years first.
