  Flowers, cherry pipe-tobacco, black raspberry, spearmint, black cassis, and plums open the perfume. On the palate, the wine is lush, fresh, sweet, spicy, pure, and rich, with a vibrant, long deep, black and blue fruit and tobacco packed finish. This is Jr. Mouton Rothschild! The wine blends 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19.% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot.14.2% ABV, 3.86 pH. Drink from 2024-2045. 95-96 Pts.

  95 vvPunkte / (71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot, 60% Neuholz, 3.86 pH, 14.2% Alkohol) Dunkle Farbe und dunkelfruchtige Nase, viel Rauch in diesem Bouquet, Süssholz, Herzkirschen, Cassis und Brombeergelé. Im Gaumen rund und zugänglich, ein Mund voll Wein, sehr reife Frucht, das ist ein ganzer Korb von Waldbeeren, sehr knackig, getragen von einer seidenweichen, leicht salinen Tanninstruktur, der Wein ist opulent, zeigt viel Dichte und dennoch viel Frische, im Abgang mit ausgezeichneter Länge. Ein grosser kleiner Mouton... (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 auf Château Mouton-Rothschild) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch

  En Primeur campaign for the 2022 vintage Day Six (Bordeaux): Funky, slightly reductive, gamey, a bit stinky, lots of agitation helps this to dissipate to reveal black hued fruits, sweet spice beneath this as well as a little alcohol prickle. Mouth puckering tannic grip proves tight and drying, muted black fruits beneath this. A little closed. Nah on this tasting.
