Château Mouton Rothschild 2018 — Pauillac
This Château Mouton Rothschild 2018 embodies a generous, dense and profoundly Médoc expression of Pauillac. As one of Bordeaux’s emblematic First Growths, Mouton Rothschild delivers a wine of remarkable intensity, shaped by the richness of the vintage, the nobility of Cabernet Sauvignon and the distinctive brilliance of the great gravel soils of the Médoc.
The 2018 vintage offers a generous and structured profile, led by cassis, blackberry, black cherry, graphite, cedar, blond tobacco, cocoa, liquorice and fine spices. The palate impresses with its volume, concentration and length, while retaining the aristocratic precision that defines the greatest wines of Pauillac.
