Description

Château Mouton Rothschild 2003

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Excellent level, label very slightly wrinkled at edges; Excellent niveau, étiquette très légèrement froissée sur les côtés


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 2023, it has a very deep colour and a great nose of blackcurrants and liquorice, oozing First Growth stature. Total succulence and richness on the palate, so juicy, opulent and luscious. Stunning ripeness that is beautifully managed in this hot vintage, as freshness is maintained - the glories of Cabernet Sauvignon revelling in warmth. This wine has always been a stand-out, a true celebration of 150 years of Rothschild ownership. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
