(92-93 vvPunkte) 45% SB, 19% SG, 36 Sémillon. Mittleres Gelb. In der Nase mit exotischen Früchten, Weinbergpfirsich und einem Hauch Rauchigkeit. Der Gaumen ist reiffruchtig, knackig, mit sehr schöner Säure, die Frucht erinnert in der Aromatik wiederum an exotische Früchte, hallt dann im Abgang auf Pfirsich und etwas Grapefruit nach. Ein sehr gut strukturierter Wein mit langem, mineralischem Abgang. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Château Mouton Rothschild) vvWine.ch

Notes of white peach, ginger, flowers and lemon curd are all over the place. The wine is sweet, fresh and filled with even more of those ripe, sweet, white peaches and pomelo in the zesty finish. You can enjoy this on release. The wine was made from a blend of 45% Sauvignon Blanc, 36% Semillon and 19% Sauvignon Gris. Drink from 2023-2030. 94-94

En-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): Pleasing cloudiness to this obvious barrel sample – Mouton naturel, if you will – smells so like fresh gooseberries that it takes me back to preparing gooseberry crumble with my mum as a young boy. Of course, we didn’t make it in a new oak barrel…medium plus intensity acidity is juicy, gooseberry on the palate with creamy lees and oak, textured burr on mid palate. Travels long that oak is a little intrusive on the finish. Hmm

Rich and rounded with some fat fruit. One could probably apologize for the nose.
