Product Description

Vineyard Overview

The Château Mouton Rothschild estate is primarily located on the "Plateau de Mouton," a hillock rising 27 meters above sea level. The vineyard features deep gravelly soils and is planted with classic regional varieties: 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot. While the exact blend of the wine varies by vintage, Cabernet Sauvignon remains dominant, contributing to Mouton's rich tannins, complex aromas, and aging potential. Merlot complements with its softness, roundness, and impressive length. The vineyard is densely planted with 10,000 vines per hectare, and the average vine age is approximately 44 years.

Vintage Notes

The 2003 vintage is memorable for its heatwave summer and early harvest. Following a cold, dry winter, spring saw 37% less rainfall than the average of the past four decades. August was particularly hot, with temperatures often exceeding 40°C and below-average rainfall. Despite these conditions, the deep-rooted vines thrived, yielding a crop of healthy, richly colored, and tannic grapes.

Tasting Notes from the Producer

This wine presents a striking garnet color and an elegantly refined nose typical of Cabernet, featuring aromas of blackcurrant, cedarwood, caramel, and stewed fruit. It starts off lush with a rich, well-rounded palate of stylish tannins. Flavors of fruit blend seamlessly with hints of spice, Havana cigar, and eucalyptus. The finish is expressive, long, and powerful, showcasing harmony and silkiness. The 2003 Mouton Rothschild stands out as one of the standout successes of recent vintages.
