- Terroir : 90 hectares of deep gravel and clay on the hillsides of Pauillac, where Cabernet Sauvignon reveals its mineral power.
- Vinification : Aged in new oak barrels, fermentation in wooden vats and rigorous selection of the finest plots for wines of rare precision.
Tasting notes for Château Mouton Rothschild Mouton Rothschild 1998
- To the eye : A deep garnet robe with brick-tinted highlights, of silky density and a luminosity that already hints at its complexity.
- On the nose : First, fresh aromas of blackcurrant cream and dried roses, then deeper notes of hoisin, baking spices and dried cherries, before giving way to a mineral touch of undergrowth and incense.
- On the palate : A velvety yet taut texture, where firm and silky tannins are balanced by a lively acidity and a chalky minerality, delivering a long and fragrant finish marked by nuances of blackberry and wood smoke.
Serve at 16-18°C in a Bordeaux glass to unlock its full aromatic palette.
