    10/12/2023 - Likes this wine:

    medium deep purple-red color, very ripe nose- almost roasted, strong oak, on the palate rolling and slightly sweet fruit, indulgent, soft tannins, good finish- nicely fragrant, not as tight as Mouton but still somewhat restrained in the middle.

    [***, 2030+]

    Black currants, cedar, flowers, spice, tobacco, and dried fruits create the nose. On the palate, the wine is fresh, mineral-driven, vibrant, and chewy with a core of red pit and red berries that stick with verve and tenacity. The mid-palate and finish continue in the same direction with a strong essence of minerality that accompanies the fruit. The wine blends 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Franc, 13.1% ABV. Drink from 2026-2040.

    Elegant, sophisticated, long, clean and expansive, this is showing just great due to all its layers of perfectly ripe, red fruits, silky tannins, length and freshness. There is a real verve here, with concentration, sweetness, lift and complexity allowing the wine to age and evolve. The finish leaves you with more of those sweet, ripe, juicy berries. Today the second wine of Mouton Rothschild is superior to every vintage of Mouton produced in the 70s and in most of the 80s! The wine blends 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc, 13.1% ABV. 94-96
