Product Description
JD100 "Bottled in June of 2024, the 2022 Château Mouton Rothschild checks in as classic blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot that was raised all in new barrels. Incredibly concentrated yet light on its feet and graceful, this inky-hued beauty has sensational notes of cassis, graphite, crushed stone, and chocolate that are to die for. It shows the ripe, opulent style of the vintage yet brings sensational purity, loads of tannins, and a gorgeous finish. For the tech geeks out there, this hit 14% alcohol, a pH of 3.86, and an IPT (tannins) of 76. It has the depth of fruit and texture to offer incredible pleasure even today, yet it deserves a decade of bottle age and will evolve for 50-60 years. It reminds me of a mix of the 2009 and 2010."

LP100 "Deep garnet-purple in color, after a swirl or two of coaxing, the 2022 Mouton Rothschild charges out of the gate with powerful notes of crème de cassis, plum preserves, and violets, followed by hints of camphor, iron ore, and crushed rocks. The medium to full-bodied palate is densely packed with rich, opulent black fruit layers, supported by superbly ripe tannins and wonderful freshness, finishing long and multi-layered. A real wow wine! This is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot." LPB for TWP May 2025
JS100 "Wow. The aromas here are so complete with blackcurrants, asphalt, violets, lead pencil, orange blossoms and black truffles. A perfect nose. It's full-bodied yet tied down with seamless tannins that run the length of the wine and give such a seductive mouthfeel and persistence. A vintage with one of the highest percentages of cabernet sauvignon ever. Quintessential, great Bordeaux with no limits." JS Jan 2025
