Critics’ scores and tasting notes
“A glamorous wine for the vintage, with mesmerizing perfumes of flowers, al dente fruit and citrus flowers. Black currants with some mineral and stone undertones. Medium- to full-bodied with ultra-fine tannins and an endless finish. The tannins lead you on a great trip. It is the most cabernet sauvignon ever used in the blend in recent memory. Balanced and structured. 98% cabernet sauvignon and 2% merlot.”
A neighbour of Lafite but owned by another branch of the Rothschild family (acquired in 1853 by Nathaniel), Mouton is closely linked to the personality of Baron Philippe. Having taken over the cru in 1922, he restored its prestige by modernising it (notably by building the famous “grand chai”), work which culminated in 1973 in the revision of the 1855 classification and Mouton’s elevation to the rank of 1er cru classé. Baron Philippe also played an important role in the history of wine, as one of the first to practise château-bottling, from 1926, and by commissioning artists to illustrate his labels. From 1988, his daughter Philippine, who died in 2014, continued his work. She was succeeded by her son, Philippe Sereys de Rothschild. An 84-hectare vineyard located mainly on a ridge of very deep gravel known as the “Plateau de Mouton”, and a brand-new vat room completed in 2013.
