Château Mouton Rothschild 2006

Tasting notes

"A major sleeper of the vintage and a great effort, the 2006 Mouton-Rothschild boasts abundant notes of crème de cassis, licorice, truffles, forest floor and cedarwood. The stunning aromatics are still somewhat primary, but the wine is full-bodied with sweet, abundant tannin. "

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

In 1853, Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild bought Château Brane-Mouton and immediatly renamed it Château Mouton Rothschild.

In 1945, to celebrate the Liberation, Baron Philippe had the imaginative idea of crowing the label for that year's vintage with a suitable design. It was the "V" for Victory, the first in the facinating collection of original works created each year for the Mouton label by famous painters, including Mirò, Chagall, Picasso, Warhol, Bacon,...

In 1973, after a long battle, Baron Philippe finally obtained a revision of the 1855 classification and Mouton was officially recognized as a first growth.
