In a few words ...
The famous Château Mouton Rothschild is undeniably one of the greatest Bordeaux wines. It is the only estate to have had its classification revised in 1973, after a real struggle: from 2nd Cru Classé, it rose to the ultimate rank of 1st. J. Suckling : 100/100
"With its beautiful dark hue, the Mouton 2012 immediately shows its seductive power with a bouquet of powerful notes of toast, vanilla and café crème, to which are added aromas of blackcurrant and blueberry. These notes of café au lait, so characteristic of the vintage, are echoed in a very elegant, dense, suave and tender palate, backed by fine, silky tannins. A sweetness that also leaves its mark on the long, penetrating finish, enhanced by fine toasted and spicy notes and a well-adjusted touch of freshness. A remarkable success.
