CHATEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD, 2009
PAUILLAC
“Deep garnet colored, the 2009 Mouton Rothschild gives up bold earthy notions of underbrush, tilled soil and fungi over a core of crème de cassis, plum preserves and Indian spices with a waft of camphor. Full-bodied with a firm, velvety tannin texture and packed with black fruit preserves and exotic spice layers, it has seamless freshness and a very long, decadently fruited finish.” - Robert Parker

History and anecdotes
In 1853, the Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild, who was eager to serve his own wine to his guests, bought the Château Brane-Mouton at auction; the estate that will carry his name. In 1924, his great-grandson, the Baron Philippe de Rothschild, developed the bottling at the château. Indeed, wine was before delivered in barrels to wine merchants. In 1973, the château was promoted and classified as Premier Grand Cru in the 1855 classification.
