The 2023 Mouton Rothschild unwinds in the glass with a rich bouquet of dark berries, cedar box, cigar wrapper and violets, framed by a generous application of toasty oak. Full-bodied, rich and concentrated, with a broad attack and a deep, layered, ample mid-palate, it's a fleshy, muscular wine, built around youthfully chalky tannins that will reward some bottle age.

Deep garnet-purple in color, after a swirl or two, the 2023 Mouton Rothschild sails out of the glass with a stunning nose of blackcurrant jelly, black raspberries, candied violets, and dark chocolate, leading to touches of sandalwood, mossy tree bark, and garrigue. The medium-bodied palate is an exercise in finesse, delivering wonderfully fine-grained tannins and bold freshness to match the nuanced black fruit and floral layers, finishing long and perfumed. The blend is 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Merlot, with a pH of 3.79 and an alcohol of 13.3%.

Another ultra-classic, virtually perfect Mouton from this team, the 2023 Château Mouton Rothschild sports a darker plum/purple hue as well as stunning aromatics of blackcurrants, graphite, chocolate, spicy wood, and smoke. It's rich, medium to full-bodied, and concentrated on the palate, with ripe, polished tannins, beautiful overall balance, no hard edges, and a great finish. It's a sensational 2023 with so much to love, and I'd gladly drink a bottle today, yet this will age gracefully for 30-40 years. Drink 2026-2060.

The 2023 Mouton Rothschild is bright and explosive in the glass. Vibrant, rich, deep and so beautifully expressive, the 2023 Mouton is one of my early candidates for wine of the vintage. Cabernet Sauvignon is bumped up to 93% (the highest ever, just behind the 2010), with 7% Merlot and no Cabernet Franc or Petit Verdot in the blend. Time in the glass brings out darker shades of fruit along the wine's complex, dynamic personality. This is a magnificent Grand Vin.

The 2023 Mouton Rothschild has a deep, opaque hue. The bouquet is immediately satisfying with a controlled explosion of blackberry, cassis and violets that is quintessential Mouton. Very fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied yet intense, quite chiseled tannins, gentle grip, supremely well focused with a captivating, mineral-driven finish that is less flamboyant in style compared to recent vintages. Very persistent, this is a Mouton Rothschild with grandeur.

A deep and generous red with red and black currants, black truffles and blue fruit. Full-bodied and spicy but still in balance. Luscious and flamboyant, then it tightens at the end. The fruit is very transparent and verges on exotic. but then it holds back with the tannins. It's so velvety and integrated. It changes all the time in the glass. 93% cabernet sauvignon and 7% merlot. Best after 2030.

Gorgeous red and black fruit on the nose, really fruit-forward and expressive, not so much on the mineral or floral side. Smooth and supple, this has great movement: a sense of life, depth and richness, so suave. The fruit and tannins fill the mouth, but with delightful coolness – blueberry and crisp cherry. Liquorice and wet stones also come through; graphite, chalk, mint, a touch of toast on the finish. Flashes of exoticism, as well as finesse. Structure and seriousness but with bounce, full of texture and nuance. Stylish and characterful, a wonderful Mouton.

Intensité aromatique remarquable, corps superbe même si le tannin est encore un peu ferme par rapport à celui d’autres crus de ce niveau. Il aura besoin d’un lent élevage : l’équipe en place excelle dans cette pratique.

Mouton 2023 positioniert sich mit einer Sicherheit und Gelassenheit, die auf Anhieb an einen großen Wein erinnert! Der Raum von wenigen Sekunden reicht aus, um die Weichen auf bestimmte und entscheidende Weise zu stellen! Die Holznote ist nur zweitrangig, was im Zusammenhang mit Mouton übrigens seit einigen Jahren zu begrüßen ist. Es ist jedoch entscheidend in seiner Fähigkeit, die vorhandenen Komponenten zu stützen, aber es übernimmt nicht die Rolle des Markers, sondern vielmehr die des Anführers, indem es darauf achtet, die fruchtigen Noten, das Terroir und die damit verbundene Mineralität hervorzuheben. Am Gaumen zeigt der Wein Dichte und Tiefe. Von den ersten Sekunden an. Nie im Übermaß, beeindruckt er durch seinen linearen, subtilen, eleganten und einladenden Charakter. Die fleischigen, feinkörnigen und ein wenig lieblichen Tannine glänzen mit ihrer feinen Körnung und ihrer Fähigkeit, eine Symbiose mit der Säurestruktur einzugehen. Ein subtil kraftvoller, tiefer, anhaltender und sehr Mouton-artiger Wein. Ein sehr großer Mouton, der der Hall of Fame des Weinguts würdig ist.

Pulled from just 40% of the production, the 2023 Château Mouton Rothschild is based on 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Merlot that will see 18 months in new barrels. Tasting like the blood of Cabernet with its smoky red, black, and blue fruits, tobacco leaf, graphite, and cedar-driven aromatics, this beauty hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a pure, polished, layered mouthfeel, beautiful concentration, and ripe, velvety tannins. Not the massive style of the 2022, it’s more in line with the 2016. This rich, elegant, seamless 2023 will need a decade to hit its prime.
