Producer: Château Mouton Rothschild
Vintage: 2002
Size: 1.5L
ABV: 13%
Varietal: Bordeaux Blend Red
Country/Region: France, Pauillac
Medium to deep ruby-red color is not quite opaque. Aromas of cassis & opulent black-cherry fruit are overlaid by coconutty new oak notes. The palate is supple & of mid-weight with notes of new vanilla oak. This is more a wine of balance than concentration with fresh acidity lifting the fruit & balanced alcohol. The finish has reasonable length.
Producer Information
Château Mouton Rothschild is located in the commune of Pauillac, in the Medoc, 30 miles (50km) northwest of the city of Bordeaux. The grand vin is among the most highly rated and priced wines in the world, and is generally regarded as the most exuberant and powerful of all Bordeaux. It was famously added to the First Growths set out in the 1855 Classification in 1973.The château started life as Brane-Mouton, and was among the best in Bordeaux through the 18th and early 19th Centuries, although there was a dip in quality and price in the 1840s. The Rothschild family bought (and renamed) the property in 1853 and quickly restored its reputation, but not in time for the 1855 Classification of Médoc wines, in which Mouton was only ranked a second growth wine. Lafite, Latour, Margaux and Haut-Brion attained Premier Cru Classé status.
