“Mouton Rothschild hasn't skipped a beat since the sublime 2009 vintage!

Chateau Mouton Rothschild is one of the most iconic names in all of Bordeaux—renowned not only for its exceptional Pauillac wines but for rewriting the rules of classification. Elevated to First Growth status in 1973, it remains the only chateau to ever achieve this. Owned by the Rothschild family since 1853, Mouton is famed for its opulent Cabernet-based wines, cutting-edge artistry, and its tradition of commissioning world-famous artists for each vintage label.
The 2019 Mouton Rothschild is a showstopper—bold, statuesque and deeply refined. A blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon with 9% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot, it bursts with crème de cassis, black cherry, mint, tobacco and violet. Its velvety tannins and floral lift balance power with finesse. With multiple 100-point scores and wide critical acclaim, this is a benchmark Mouton that delivers both grandeur and precision—a future classic with decades of evolution ahead. “Today, it is unquestionably one of the wines of the vintage. Powerful and statuesque in its beauty, Mouton is remarkable in every way,” says Antonio Galloni.

The 2019 Mouton Rothschild is a blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple colored, it races out of the glass with gregarious scents of creme de cassis, redcurrant jelly, black raspberries, and chocolate-covered cherries, giving way to a serious undercurrent of licorice, forest floor, candied violets, and cardamom with a touch of cast-iron pan. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is jam-packed with expressive red, black, and blue fruit layers, framed by fine-grained tannins and bold freshness, finishing with floral, exotic spices and a mineral firework display.

Mouton Rothschild hasn't skipped a beat since the sublime 2009 vintage! 2019 continues their winning streak with one of the wines of the vintage. Almost opaque in color, the nose resonates with its showy display of Asian spices, cigar wrapper, fresh herbs, cigar box, blackberries, crushed stone and cassis. Full-bodied, richly concentrated, opulent, and equally refined, the multi-layered display of flawlessly ripe berries, elegant textures, balance, freshness and flamboyance is what the great vintages of Mouton are all about. The finish crosses the 60 second mark with ease.

Dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, subtle brightening on rim. Fine dark berry fruit, a hint of cassis and liquorice, fresh tangerine zest, nuances of cedar, the bouquet exercises noble restraint. Complex, full-bodied, super elegant texture, fine expression, ripe, long, silky tannins, great density, ripe cherries, mineral, fine spice, convincing length, certain ageing potential, will enter maturity early, so make sure to stock up.

This is incredibly complex, with all the cabernet descriptors, from mint and lead pencil to blackberry, blackcurrant and menthol. It changes all the time in the glass, just as in the nose. Yet, it remains cool and classy. Full-bodied with very fine, tight tannins that run the length of the wine, carrying on and on and on. Well-framed and compact wine. Never-ending procession of currant, berry and black cherry fruit, together with licorice, earth and just a hint of black truffle. 90% cabernet sauvignon, 9% merlot and 1% petit verdot. Give this until 2028 to show its true greatness.

The 2019 Mouton Rothschild has come together beautifully since I tasted it from barrel. Today, it is unquestionably one of the wines of the vintage. Powerful and statuesque in its beauty, Mouton is remarkable in every way. Layers of dark-toned fruit confer seriousness and intensity that builds with time. All of the finesse I saw in barrel is still present. Since then, the 2019 has gained flesh and vibrancy. Magnificent!

The 2019 Mouton Rothschild is the most dramatic of the Médoc first growths, soaring from the glass with aromas of cassis, blackberries and violets mingled with rich aromas of cedar, cigar wrapper, licorice, loamy soil and spices. Full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, it's deep and powerful, with huge levels of concentration and an ineffably complete, seamless profile, concluding with a long, resonant finish. Plenty of ripe tannin is hidden by its ample core of fruit, and despite its youthful polish, this will require plenty of bottle age to realize all its potential. This blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot tastes in many respects like the 2016 Mouton's more sun-kissed cousin.
