Château Mouton Rothschild
Le Petit Mouton, Pauillac, 2007
justerini & brooks tasting note
Tight structure on the nose, with fresh entry on the palate that develops good weight of crushed berry fruit, tinged with smoky terroir and spice; smooth tannins, nice balance, medium weight and dry on finish.

88/100Stephen Tanzer,Vinous
Medium red-ruby. Expressive nose melds currant, cherry, tobacco leaf and fresh herbs. Supple and drinkable already, with a fragrant component of exotic smoky oak adding interest to the dark berry and herbal flavors. Finishes slightly tart, with a fine dusting of tannins.
