Description

2014 Le Petit Mouton de Mouton Rothschild, Pauillac, BordeauxDark, dense and brooding in the glass, Le Petit Mouton continues to go from strength to strength. It will be a tremendous bottle of wine to be enjoyed from around 8 years after the vintage. Blackcurrant fruit dominates on the palate that shows excellent concentration and depth, with fresh acidity and firm, yet ripe and well knit, tannins. Cherry fruit, spice and some lovely graphite characters add complexity on the finish and there is a really nicely

Orchard fruit

with a burst of citrus and some honeyed green fruits

energy behind

if not stunning

24% Cabernet Sauvignon

refined and vibrant medium weight flavors exude a subtle minerality on the delicious and lacy bitter cherry pit-infused finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth

but its second wine was also a real treat this year

doubly appropriate given its luxuriant gustatory profile

Very drinkable
