    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Quite closed on the nose: the initial impression is of fine cassis and blueberry fruit, elegant in character but with discernable weight behind; much broader on the palate, with grainy soft tannins, a lovely rich texture, sumptuous chocolate sponge and dark fruit compote, medium weight, with the tannins developing greater finesse through a persistent, balanced finish. All charm and polish, this is a fine offering that will warrant mid-term drinking. 13,000 cases made.

    Antonio Galloni,
    Vinous
    The 2007 Mouton Rothschild is a gorgeous wine, especially within the context of the vintage. Open, expressive aromatics and forward fruit make the 2007 an excellent choice for drinking now and over the next two decades or so. Although the 2007 is not an epic Mouton, it is without question one of the best recent vintages for current drinking. Smoke, tobacco, cedar and licorice add the closing shades of nuance. Warm weather resulted in an unusually early start to the growing season. Summer was not especially warm, but a hot, dry September pushed the raisins through the final phase of ripening. The blend is 81% Cabernet Sauvignon and 19% Merlot. Harvest took place between September 26 and October 11.
