Description
Château Mouton Rothschild 2003
Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé
Label: 150th Anniversary
Cabernet Sauvignon 76%, Merlot 14%, Cabernet Franc 8%, Petit Verdot 2%. This was the last vintage of Patrick Léon, with Philippe Dhalluin coming in for the 'élevage'. In 2018, so rich on the nose, with opulence, smoky cassis and a touch of cumin. So soft, all-embracing and velvety on the palate, with an inner fruity core. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
