Chateau Mouton Rothschild 2014

ROBERT PARKER “Château Mouton Rothschild is one of the most prestigious estates in Bordeaux, located in the Pauillac appellation. Elevated to First Growth status in the 1973 reclassification, Mouton Rothschild is renowned for its rich history, exceptional quality, and artistic labels designed by famous artists each year.

The estate is managed by the Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, whose commitment to excellence continues to elevate the reputation of Mouton Rothschild. The estate’s unique terroir, characterized by gravelly soils and a mix of clay and limestone, contributes to the wine’s complexity and aging potential. The 2014 vintage is a remarkable example of Mouton Rothschild’s craftsmanship, with a blend predominantly made up of Cabernet Sauvignon. This variety provides the wine with intense flavors of blackcurrant, cassis, and blackberry, complemented by notes of cedar, tobacco, and graphite. The Merlot adds a touch of plushness and roundness, while the small quantities of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot contribute additional layers of complexity and spice.”
