Every year since the 1940s a different artist has decorated the label. Grapes are now selected only from the core original vineyard site and the wine is always a classic example of both Cabernet Sauvignon and Pauillac. This great first growth combines the strength and power of Latour with the polish and charm of Lafite and the unmistakable Mouton notes of cigar box, spice and cassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2022 is 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot and comes in at 14 degrees.

The aromas here are so complete with blackcurrants, asphalt, violets, lead pencil, orange blossoms and black truffles. A perfect nose. It's full-bodied yet tied down with seamless tannins that run the length of the wine and give such a seductive mouthfeel and persistence. A vintage with one of the highest percentages of cabernet sauvignon ever. Quintessential, great Bordeaux with no limits. Drink after 2028.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100\/100 Points - Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Bottled in June of 2024, the 2022 Château Mouton Rothschild checks in as classic blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot that was raised all in new barrels. Incredibly concentrated yet light on its feet and graceful, this inky-hued beauty has sensational notes of cassis, graphite, crushed stone, and chocolate that are to die for. It shows the ripe, opulent style of the vintage yet brings sensational purity, loads of tannins, and a gorgeous finish. For the tech geeks out there, this hit 14% alcohol, a pH of 3.86, and an IPT (tannins) of 76. It has the depth of fruit and texture to offer incredible pleasure even today, yet it deserves a decade of bottle age and will evolve for 50-60 years. It reminds me of a mix of the 2009 and 2010.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e99\/100 Points - Jane Anson, JaneAnson.com\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Inky colour, cassis, cocoa bean, cocoa dusting, crushed rose petals, juice, pep, focus and crystalline character, a serious wine that will power for decades, intense and concentrated but with an oyster shell minerality, delicious quality. A great example of how brilliant Cabernet Sauvignon can be in this part of the world, and why it sets the benchmark globally. This is unquestionably one of the wines of the vintage.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98-100\/100 Points - \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLisa Perrotti-Brown MW, The Wine Independent\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The 2022 Mouton Rothschild, 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot, is aging in 100% new oak. Deep garnet-purple in colour, it is incredibly closed to start off, needing a lot of shaking to wake up subtle notes of blackcurrant jelly, ripe blackberries, and fresh mulberries, leading to hints of espresso, crushed rocks, iris bulb, and star anise. Compared with the nose, the mouth wows with explosive, intense flavours of cassis, black cherries, and liquorice that fill the palate, framed by very firm, beautifully ripe tannins and a lively backbone, finishing very long with mineral and floral sparks. It is amazing how classical this Mouton this is, considering the extreme vintage. A legend in the making.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chateau Mouton Rothschild","offers":[{"title":"6 Bottle Case","offer_id":58348814893387,"sku":"WOLRE13292S","price":6060.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 Bottle Case","offer_id":58348814926155,"sku":"WOLRE13293S","price":12120.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Single Bottle","offer_id":58348814958923,"sku":"WOLRE13294S","price":1050.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0213\/9218\/files\/Mouton_Rothschild_Wood.jpg?v=1788448333","url":"https:\/\/wineonline.ie\/products\/chateau-mouton-rothschild-2022","provider":"WineOnline","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
