{"product_id":"chateau-la-mondotte-1983","title":"Chateau La Mondotte Saint-Emilion 1983 AOC 0,75l","description":"\u003cp\u003eLa Mondotte is a name most wine people associate with 1996, when Stephan von Neipperg bottled the parcel separately for the first time and it became one of Saint-Émilion's most argued-about wines. This bottle is thirteen years older than that, from the era when the Mondotte lieu-dit — a small rise of limestone and clay east of the village, up near Troplong Mondot — was simply another Saint-Émilion holding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat that means for a buyer is straightforward. This is a genuine 1983 Saint-Émilion, Merlot-led, from a good if unheralded corner of the côtes, sold on the strength of its year rather than on a modern reputation it predates. 1983 was warm on the Right Bank and produced wines that matured early and have been resting ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe label is sound and the fill sits at the base of the neck. It is a direct way to put the right year on the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Château La Mondotte\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1983\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Saint-Émilion AOC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75cl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bordeaux, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere it is likely to be now.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a mature and likely delicate Saint-Émilion whose best drinking was some years ago, and it is sold as a collectible item without a guarantee of how it will taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho it suits.\u003c\/strong\u003e Works for a 1983 birthday or anniversary as a talking point: the year on the label, and a name that Saint-Émilion made famous a decade after this wine was made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition.\u003c\/strong\u003e Good label, with the wine filling to the base of the neck, which is normal and healthy for a forty-three-year-old Bordeaux.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProvenance.\u003c\/strong\u003e Bought to order from a professional European merchant.
