Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1er Cru Classé 2008 0,75 l

Parker N° 194 (01.05.2011) : 94+ Trinkreife : -2045

The final blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon and 17% Merlot exhibits tell-tale black currant liqueur, incense, charcoal and floral-like characteristics. The oak is pushed to the background, one of the major improvements director Philippe Dalhuin has made at this estate. Full-bodied, deep and impressively endowed, it is a deep, rich, less massive effort than either the 2010 or 2009.
