CHÂTEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD

BORDEAUX, FRANCE


 

If ever there were a time to replenish your stocks, folks, this is it.

 

After our recent (and exhilarating) portfolio tour of the great Château Mouton Rothschild, we couldn't wait to share the excitement with you.

 

Our back-vintage showcase of this legendary First Growth includes three 100-pointers from three of the most extraordinary vintages this century (2009, 2018, 2020) and two 98-pointers, and shows the Left Bank lion to be operating at absolute peak form.

 

Investments don't get much sounder than this, and you're assuredly not going to find any that are more delicious.

 

Concentration, purity, intensity, clarity, expressiveness: these wines have it all, and in thrilling abundance.

 

The critics were united in their enthusiasm for them.

 

Reviewing the 2009 vintage, Jeb Dunnuck deemed it to be a wine of "pure perfection," awarding 100 points and declaring it a "sexy, seductive" "masterpiece" that summons memories of Mouton's legendary 1982 vintage. 

 

Decanter was no less enamored of the 2018 vintage, awarding 100 points and calling it a "big, textured and complex wine" that, for all its depth and grandeur, is "taking it all in its stride." 

 

As for the 2020 vintage, it earned 100-point scores from no less than 3 critics, among them The Wine Advocate, which described it as "broad and layered, with terrific concentrated, beautifully refined tannins and a long, penetrating finish."

 

It's a measure of Mouton's greatness that its "second wine," Le Petit Mouton, claimed 98 points for its 2020 vintage, with James Suckling hailing it as "velvety" and "soft," and that even a less-heralded vintage, like 2017, nonetheless claimed the #37 spot on Suckling's Top 100 Wines of France 2020 (an "extremely refined” wine, he declared it, awarding 98 points).

 

As compelling as the numbers are, however, they simply cannot begin to convey the sheer profundity and majesty of these wines, nor their sinuous and transportive magic

 

This is a rare opportunity, folks, and we hope you'll take full advantage of it to stock your cellar with five of the greatest wines this century.
