Details
Château Mouton-Rothschild 2008
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case
Tasting note: The final blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon and 17% Merlot exhibits tell-tale blackcurrant liqueur, incense, charcoal and floral-like characteristics. The oak is pushed to the background, one of the major improvements director Philippe Dalhuin has made at this estate. Full-bodied, deep and impressively endowed, it is a deep, rich, less massive effort than either the 2010 or 2009. This gorgeous Mouton will be drinkable in 4-5 years and age effortlessly for three decades. Robert Parker Wine Advocate #194 May 2011
