Molecular property models increasingly support high-stakes drug-discovery decisions, but their outputs are often difficult to audit: classical predictors return scores without rationale, while language models can produce fluent explanations weakly grounded in the input molecule. We introduce Bolek, a compact multimodal language model that grounds natural-language reasoning in molecular structure by injecting a Morgan fingerprint embedding into an instruction-tuned text decoder. Bolek is fine-tuned on molecular alignment tasks, including molecule description, RDKit descriptor prediction, and substructure detection, and on downstream reasoning over 15 TDC binary classification tasks using synthetic chains-of-thought anchored in concrete molecular features. Across these tasks, Bolek outperforms its Qwen3-4B-Instruct base on all endpoints in yes/no mode and on 13 of 15 in chain-of-thought mode, raising mean ROC/PR AUC from 0.55 to 0.76. It also outperforms TxGemma-9B-Chat on 13 of 15 binary classification tasks despite being less than half its size. Bolek's explanations are more grounded than those of the baseline LLMs: it cites numerical descriptors 10-100x more often per chain-of-thought, and the cited values agree strongly with RDKit for key descriptors such as TPSA, MolLogP, and MolWt (Spearman rho = 0.87-0.91). Generalisation extends beyond the training panel: on 15 unseen TDC classification endpoints, Bolek matches TxGemma on five, and it produces non-trivial rank correlations on three held-out regression endpoints despite never seeing downstream regression during training. These results suggest that targeted modality injection and reasoning supervision tied to verifiable molecular features can yield compact, auditable molecular reasoning models.
