The 2022 Château Mouton Rothschild presents itself in the glass with a deep dark ruby garnet colour with an opaque core and violet reflections. Its bouquet is exceptionally complex and powerful: blackcurrants, cassis and blackberries dominate, accompanied by notes of graphite, cocoa, cedar wood, fine spices, tobacco and mineral hints. On the palate, the wine is concentrated and structured, with dense fruit, elegant, well-integrated tannins and lively acidity that provides freshness and balance. The finish is long, persistent and elegant, characterised by dark fruit, minerality and subtle wood nuances. Overall, the 2022 Mouton is a powerful, aristocratically balanced Bordeaux with great ageing potential.
