Decadent and rich aromas of black cherries and plums with wet earth and sandalwood. Turns to dried mushrooms. Full-bodied, tight and closed with big, polished tannins, yet this is very closed and shy right now. Despite...

This could hit 100 Pts when fully mature. And, why not? There is a gorgeous symmetry here, balancing intensity, concentration, length, purity, and elegance, along with a close to seamless finish that delivers layer after...

Gorgeously confident and rich in colour, you can see the silkiness in the glass from the first look. This has 11% press wine, which tells you how good the skins were and how gently they extract at first. Winemaker...

The Wine Independent, November 2022

A blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, and 2% Cabernet Franc, the 2015 Mouton Rothschild is deep garnet in color. It rocks up with flamboyant scents of baked plums, crème de cassis, and menthol with underlying...

The 2015 Mouton-Rothschild is a Bordeaux Blend from the renowned Pauillac region of Bordeaux, France. This red wine exudes elegance and sophistication, capturing the essence of its prestigious terroir. With a deep garnet-purple color, it immediately catches the eye and draws you in.

On the nose, the wine reveals a profound bouquet of blackberry preserves, plum pudding, and crème de cassis. These intense fruit aromas are accompanied by alluring notes of grilled meats, sandalwood, cinnamon stick, and fenugreek. Subtle hints of dried roses, unsmoked cigars, and tilled soil add further complexity to the aromatic profile.

The palate is a symphony of rich, ripe black fruits with undertones of blue and red fruits. This wine is full-bodied and incredibly structured, with very firm and ripe tannins. The seamless freshness and earth-laced finish leave a lasting impression. The 2015 Mouton-Rothschild possesses striking natural beauty and impeccable craftsmanship, making it a true diva among wines.

This wine has received high praise from critics and experts. Renowned wine critic Robert Parker's Wine Advocate awarded it an impressive score of 98, describing it as a "total diva" and recommending to give it at least 7-8 years in bottle. Other critics, such as Jeff Leve and James Suckling, also rated it highly, with scores of 99 and 99 respectively. The wine is expected to age gracefully for several decades.

The 2015 Mouton-Rothschild is a wine that demands attention and is well worth the investment. Its opulent nature, concentration, and potential for aging make it a standout among Bordeaux blends. This wine will continue to evolve and reveal its full potential over the next 30+ years.
