In 2024, this is as great as ever, perfect now in bottle, but try and wait a bit in magnum. Deep black fruit characterises the bouquet, cigar-rich and opulent. In the mouth, there is dense, welcoming texture plus ripe, yet still fresh, flavour that just swarms over the palate. Huge and enveloping, exciting and satisfying. This is classic Mouton from a vintage that miraculously combined fabulous quality with quantity. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

酒標藝術家：約翰．休斯頓。2019年品嚐，水準一如以往，標準瓶裝現在正好享用，1.5公升裝精彩可期。充滿深沈的黑色水果香，如雪茄般濃郁，豐腴順滑。口感濃稠，平易近人，酒味成熟之餘依然清新，漫過每一個味蕾。雄渾豐盛，令人心神蕩漾，心生滿足。這是木桐堡的經典年份佳作，質、量兼備，彷若天公造美。施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
