Description
This has totally amazing concentration on the nose. Spicy, warm and decadent blackcurrant aromas award this the "green jacket" for most seductive nose of the week. It has a beguiling richness and weight in the mouth which is almost viscous but not even vaguely cloying. Sensational in everyway this château is just going from strength to strength, and this fabulous wine could easily surpass their recent triumphs (2008/2006/2005) and even the legends of the past (1945/1959/1961). Multilayered, magnificent, Mouton!

The aristocrat of the Médoc boasts 75 percent of the region’s First Growths, with Grand Cru Classés representing 84 percent of production. Pauillac's First Growths each have their own unique characteristics: Ch. Lafite Rothschild produces the region’s most aromatically-complex and subtly-flavoured wine, while – with its high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon – Ch. Mouton Rothschild can produce a decadently rich, fleshy and exotic wine.
