Chateau Mouton Rothschild 2005 Chateau Mouton Rothschild 2005 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classe Lot 6425: 1 label very slightly scuffed at edges by dividers Absolutely stunning, totally blackberry, intense bouquet that comes out of the glass to meet you. Deeply scented and very exciting. Like crunching black cherries in the mouth. Opulent and brambly. Cassis on the finish. Beautiful balance between the fruit, the acidity and the tannin. You could cellar this for decades. Another glimpse confirmed the great grand vin nose and the terrific, huge taste, filling the whole mouth with glorious flavour. Superb. In 2010, heavenly cream, coffee and cassis - absolutely beauteous. I am convinced that this is one of the greatest Clarets ever made. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Lot 6424 3 d.mag - 3 litres (owc) Lot 6425 3 d.mag - 3 litres (owc) per lot: HKD 36000-48000 per lot: USD 4500-6000 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.
