This is a great and impressive Mouton with plushness and precision. A million layers of tannins. It?s full and very friendly even seductive in a rich and opulent way yet it always remains fresh. Balanced and refined. Nothing sticks out here. Every so fine-grained tannins provide flesh. Looking forward to seeing its evolution. 84% cabernet sauvignon 13% merlot 2% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot.

The 2020 Mouton Rothschild is composed of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon 13% Merlot 2% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot with an alcohol of 13.1% and a pH of around 3.78. Deep purple-black colored it starts off with subtle notions of fresh raspberries and blackberries needing considerable swirling and patience to unlock its intense core of blackcurrant pastilles rose oil licorice and cardamom plus touches of cedar chest black truffles and crushed rocks. The medium-bodied palate is like a tightly coiled spring possessing exhilarating tension and very firm ripe multi-grained tannins to frame the layer upon layer of black and red fruits intertwined with earthy and mineral accents finishing very long and very fragrant. It is certainly the most coy reticent and elegant grand vin of this trio of vintages (2018 2019 and 2020) bearing Mouton's signature perfume opulence and stylishness with great grace and sophistication as opposed to devil-may-care flamboyance. It's this gently teasing achingly beautiful restraint that collectors are not going to want to miss.

Dense purple-hued and a monster of a wine the 2020 Château Mouton Rothschild checks in as 84% Cabernet Sauvignon 13% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot all of which hit 13.1% natural alcohol with a pH of 3.78. Classic Mouton notes of cassis and currant fruits give way to a more mineral-driven red offering loads of scorched earth graphite liquid violets and crushed stone aromas and flavors. Gorgeously concentrated full-bodied and structured with a firm tannic inward style that relents with time in the glass this is a serious Mouton that's going to need a decade of cellaring yet should be just about immortal.
Vinous: 96-98 Points
The 2020 Mouton Rothschild is sensual delicate and polished. Bright floral notes lead into a core of sweet red cherry cedar mint anise and blood orange. In 2020 the Mouton is a wine of unreal elegance and finesse. I can't wait to taste it from bottle as I think there may be much more to it than it?s showing today. Technical director Jean-Emmanuel Danjoy noted that the 2020
