Château Mouton-Rothschild 2006
6 magnums per lot
Château Mouton-Rothschild 2006 Pauillac, 1er cru classé In original wooden case Tasting note: A sensational effort, the 2006 Mouton Rothschild exhibits an opaque purple colour as well as a classic Mouton perfume of crème de cassis, flowers, blueberries, and only a hint of oak. Dalhuin told me that in whisky barrel-tasting vintages such as 1989 and 1990, Mouton was aged in heavily-toasted barrels, and they have backed off to a much lighter toast for the barrels’ interior. I think this has worked fabulously well with the cassis quality fruit they get from their Cabernet Sauvignon. The full-bodied, powerful 2006 possesses extraordinary purity and clarity. A large-scaled, massive Mouton Rothschild that ranks as one of the top four or five wines of the vintage, it may turn out to be the longest-lived wine of the vintage by a landslide.
