100 Robert Parker
Composed of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2016 Mouton Rothschild has an opaque garnet-purple color. WOW—the nose explodes from the glass with powerful blackcurrant cordial, black raspberries, blueberry pie and melted chocolate notions, plus suggestions of aniseed, camphor, lifted kirsch and the faintest waft of a subtle floral perfume in the background. Full-bodied, concentrated, bold and totally seductive in the mouth, it has very fine-grained, silt-like tannins, while jam-packed with tightly wound fruit layers, finishing in this wonderful array of mineral sparks. Magic.

This is a phenomenal, muscular red that shows incredible power and depth. Full-bodied and with great concentration of tannins but this remains agile and polished. The form to this is stupendous. Such precision and clarity. The new 1986 but better.
98 Wine Spectator
A generous, pure and lush ball of Cabernet, with wave after wave of unadulterated cassis and blackberry puree flavors rolling through. Features notes of roasted apple wood and sweet tobacco, offset by a long tug of sweet earth, but that's all background music to the impressive core of fruit, which steams along like a cruise ship with enough stores in reserve to go around the world twice without stopping. Best from 2025 through 2045. — JM

Château Mouton Rothschild
Unique parmi les Premiers Grands Crus bordelais, le Château Mouton Rothschild est le seul à avoir décroché sa place convoitée dans le fameux classement de 1855 après sa parution. En 1973, la pression exercée par le Baron Philippe de Rothschild pour que le château accède à ce statut ultime, a porté ses fruits. Si les vins règnent en maître en haut du classement des crus classés, leur opulence et leur accessibilité, conjuguées à leurs notes de cassis et à leurs tanins puissants, sont restées fidèles à leur style d’assemblage de haut niveau. Au moment de leur accession au rang de Premier Grand Cru Classé, le Baron Philippe a parfaitement résumé leur profil : « Premier je suis. Second je fus. Mouton ne change », autrement dit, le style reste identique. Pendant plusieurs années, le domaine fut dirigé par sa fille et amatrice d’art, la Baronne Philippine, jusqu’à sa disparition en 2014. Grâce à son implication, des artistes emblématiques, parmi lesquels Andy Warhol, Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Keith Haring et Georges Braque, ont signé les étiquettes de nombreux millésimes. Hormis l’illustre fer de lance du domaine, Mouton Rothschild, et du second vin, Le Petit Mouton, le vin blanc ultra qualitatif élaboré à plus petite échelle, Aile d’Argent, est particulièrement séducteur.
