Château Mouton Rothschild, Pauillac 2011
Product:ChâteauMoutonRothschild2011
Tasting Notes:
Deep dark, almost opaque ruby red. Aromas are restrained cedar, mulberry & a little vanilla. The palate has plush tannins that are simultaneously silky smooth & gripping. Good acidity provides cassis like bite. The wine has lovely density & classic savoury tannins. There are ripe black-fruit notes that are well-integrated with toasty oak. The acidity is fresh but not sharp - thus the wine lasts superbly, finishing with a pleasant alcoholic richness.
Pairing:
Beef, Lamb, Game(deer,venison), Poultry

The nose is elegant, fine and offers a very beautiful finesse of the grain, a fine power and deepness. It reveals notes of ripe small red fruits, blackberry and small notes of violet associated with fine hints of grey pepper/Cuben, lily, discreet hints of tobacco, minerality as well as very discreet hints of nutmeg. The mouth is fruity, fresh, elegant and offers a beautiful definition, gourmandize, a beautiful grain as well as a fine acidulous frame. On the mouth this wine expresses notes of fleshy/juicy raspberry, fleshy/juicy cherry and small notes of violet, blackberry associated with fine touches of tonka bean as well as hints of caramelization and chocolate. Tannins are elegant. Good length and persistence.
