Chateau Mouton Rothschild 2002 Chateau Mouton Rothschild 2002 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classe Lot 6333: Label slightly creased This has 90% new oak demonstrating that a First Growth will judge whether a vintage needs the full 100%. Very definite and very liquorice on the nose - terribly tempting. Very bright and 'up-front'. A really berryish character on the palate. Excellent, medium-term drinking. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Lot 6330 12 bts (owc) Lot 6331 12 bts (owc) Lot 6332 12 bts (owc) per lot: HKD 28000-40000 per lot: USD 3600-5100 Mouton, as it is affectionately known by all its devotees, is the most opulent and exuberant of all the Firsts, a reflection of the two huge personalities that have headed the Chateau since 1920, Baron Philippe and then Baroness Philippine de Rothschild. The great cassis depths of this wine seduce everyone who appreciates the finest Bordeaux. It is a gloriously forceful, flamboyant wine, voluptuous and powerful. Philippe Dhalluin, Mouton's talented Technical Director, has been at the Chateau since the harvest of 2003 and the stunning beauty of the wines has been further strengthened by meticulous attention to detail in vineyard and cellar. Many of my own greatest wine drinking experiences revolve around Mouton throughout this century and the last. Magnificent Mouton is a sensory photo on the mind that stays with one for life.
