The famous Château Mouton Rothschild is undeniably one of the greatest Bordeaux wines. It is the only estate to have had its classification revised in 1973, after a real struggle: from 2nd Cru Classé, it rose to the ultimate rank of 1st. J. Suckling : 100/100
"What can we say about the 2006? A great classic, with a burlat cherry color as youthful and elegant as the bouquet, where empyreumatic notes rub shoulders with gourmet scents of vanilla, ginger, gingerbread and warm bread. Powerful, fat and savory, the palate achieves a perfect balance of taste, creating a profound sensation of harmony, and culminating in a finish of rare persistence. Label signed Lucian Freud."
