Le Petit Mouton, Pauillac, 2010

justerini & brooks tasting note

We honestly believe that Forts de Latour, Carruades de Lafite, Petit Mouton, Pavillon Rouge and Clarence de Haut Brion are all the finest examples to date. A capacious Petit Mouton, very much in the style of the grand vin. Reserved and shrouded, this possesses impressive levels of concentration, a deep, dark cassis core, bright, ripe and with plenty of lift. An elegant, classical Pauillac.

critic reviews

93/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2010 Le Petit Mouton has a lovely bouquet with well defined raspberry and wild strawberry aromas that gain intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fine bead of acidity, quite sensual at ten-years of age with a very harmonious, almost plush finish that I did not anticipate. The insider’s choice? Tasted from an ex-château bottle at the BI Wines & Spirits 10-Year On tasting.
