This is another property of the Rothschild family, but on the English side. This Grand Cru Classe Chateau Mouton Rothschild (Pauillac designation) is located on the  left bank of the Gironde, near Bordeaux, not far from Chateau Armailhac, which is a Fifth Great Classed Growth, property of Baron Philippe de Rothschild's family. The vineyard covers 91 hectares of a single plot of vines that grow on gravel, sandy-clay soils, and lays on a limestone-marl base. The vines are about 44 years old and are grown according to the sustainable winegrowing principles.
