RP 100 pts! 2016 Chateau Mouton Rothschild Bordeaux wine, Pauillac

A higher level of acidity than is usual for Mouton is buttressed by waves of fruit and tannin. 1% Cabernet Franc completes the blend. Boasting a saturated purple color as well as an extraordinary bouquet of thick black fruits, lead pencil shavings, new saddle leather, and burning embers, with just a hint of its oak upbringing, this beauty hits the palate with a mammoth amount of fruit and texture yet stays fresh, pure, and light on its feet, with a thrilling sense of minerality as well as building tannins on the finish.
