The 2022 Mouton Rothschild is a striking wine that the team at Lambier Wines believes will be one of the most sought-after en primeur. With complex aromas of mint cassis, flowers, cigars, coffee, and soil, the 2022 Chateau Mouton Rothschild is full-bodied and layered, with stunningly concentrated, refined tannins and a long, penetrating finish. Nascent complexity and an ineffable sense of finish and balance make it the purists' choice among the past three vintages.
Chateau Mouton Rothschild is a name that even those with only a superficial interest in fine wine know, above all for its high price and for being the only one of its kind to climb the precarious ladder of the 1855 classification and achieve the coveted First Growth status. Situated on the famous gravel lands of the Grand Plateau de Mouton in Pauillac, Chateau Mouton Rothschild is often singled out among its appellation brethren, Lafite Rothschild and Latour, as the most colorful and sensual of the trio. There is a genuine joie de vivre on this sacred Chateau, extending even to the famous Château Mouton Rothschild labels created by the world's finest artists, from Picasso to Warhol. It is believed that the denial of First Growth status was originally due to ownership politics rather than issues of quality or fame. Château Mouton Rothschild's vineyards are older than most Châteaux in Bordeaux: the average age of the vines is 50 years and some are even over 100 years old! Château Mouton Rothschild is a truly "great" winery, not only French but also world-class.

Wine Advocate
William Kelley:"A brilliant wine that likely sits somewhere between the 2019 and 2020 in quality, the 2022 Mouton Rothschild is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot. Unwinding in the glass with complex aromas of minty cassis, cigar wrapper, violets and subtle hints of loamy soil, it's full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a layered core of fruit and a fleshy, elegantly muscular profile. Broad-shouldered and seamless, it concludes with a long, resonant finish. This year the grand vin represents some 49% of the estate's production."

Moving to the flagship, the 2022 Château Mouton Rothschild is a massive, full-bodied, incredibly powerful 2022 that takes no prisoners with its ripe black and blue fruits, chocolate, graphite, and smoked tobacco-driven aromas and flavors. Deep, unctuous, and concentrated, with velvety tannins, this legendary Mouton is based on 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot that's still resting in new barrel. It will unquestionably play with the top wines in the vintage. Harvest here began the 1st of September and finished on the 26th, and the final wine hit 14% natural alcohol, with a pH of 3.89 and an IPT of 76.Barrel Sample: 98-100

The Mouton-specific creme de cassis is all there. Al dente, too. The grapes must have been picked at near perfection. Depth and complexity. Black berries, earth, violets and other flowers. Full-bodied yet very hemmed-in with tight tannins, which are precise and polished. You can taste the grape skins and dust of the soil. The length is rather endless.Barrel Sample: 98-99
