Tasting notes

The 2005 Château Mouton Rothschild—a Premier Grand Cru Classé from Pauillac—is a wine of power, opulence, and impeccable pedigree. It reveals a deep, opaque color and an intense, multilayered bouquet of blackcurrant, cassis, and cedar, interwoven with nuances of spice, graphite, and freshly ground espresso.

On the palate, it is full-bodied and richly textured, delivering a dense core of dark fruit, framed by firm, sculpted tannins and a backbone of vibrant acidity. There's a polished, almost architectural precision to its structure, leading to a long, persistent finish that echoes with elegance and depth.

About the winery

Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild bought the chateau in 1853 but the legend of "Mouton" began in 1922 with Baron Philippe de Rothschild. At the age of 21 and driven by ambition full of originality, Baron decided to devote his life to forge for the winery an identity and a worldwide fame, which, from its first hour, inspired a sense of pride for Bordeaux as a whole. In 1945, to celebrate the liberation, "V" for Victory crowns the label of the vintage, an initiative that will mark the beginning of a series of original works created each year by famous painters.
