99 points James Suckling "Full-bodied yet very hemmed-in with tight tannins, which are precise and polished, the length is rather endless"

Critic Scores

99 // James Suckling

"The Mouton-specific creme de cassis is all there. Al dente, too. The grapes must have been picked at near perfection. Depth and complexity. Black berries, earth, violets and other flowers. Full-bodied yet very hemmed-in with tight tannins, which are precise and polished. You can taste the grape skins and dust of the soil. The length is rather endless. 92% cabernet sauvignon."

99 // Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"A brilliant wine that likely sits somewhere between the 2019 and 2020 in quality, the 2022 Mouton Rothschild is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot. Unwinding in the glass with complex aromas of minty cassis, cigar wrapper, violets and subtle hints of loamy soil, it's full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a layered core of fruit and a fleshy, elegantly muscular profile. Broad-shouldered and seamless, it concludes with a long, resonant finish. This year the grand vin represents some 49% of the estate's production."

98 // Antonio Galloni

"The 2022 Mouton Rothschild is a powerhouse. Inky, deep and explosive, the 2022 is a real head-turner. The combination of intense dark fruit, strong gravelly/mineral notes and imposing structure clearly bring to mind another great Mouton, and that is the 1986. In a word: magnificent. The blend is 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot"

98 // Neal Martin

"The 2022 Mouton Rothschild was picked 1 to 26 September with one of the highest Cabernet Sauvignon contents in years, matured in 100% new oak as usual. Very deep, almost opaque in color. It is stubborn on the nose, at first, backward, then opens after 10 minutes with black plum, cassis and violet aromas. It is more voluptuous than the 2022 Lafite-Rothschild which is what you expect. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy and quite strict tannins (the IPT is 76), that frame layers of black fruit laced with tobacco and graphite. Powerful, almost burly, it is perhaps how the 1986 tasted in its youth. A Mouton-Rothschild determined to make a statement and it certainly does that. Feels a bit like tasting Thor's hammer at the moment, but it will just require considerable cellaring. 14.05% alcohol."

Chateau Mouton Rothschild

In 1853 Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild purchased an existing chateau, Brane-Mouton in the Paulliac appellation of Bordeaux's left bank and named his property Mouton Rothschild. Excluded from the top tier in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, de Rothschild's great-grandson, Baron Philippe won a long fight to upgrade the status of his chateau in 1973, thus naming Chateau Mouton Rothschild one of five First Growths. After Philippe's death in 1988, his daughter Baroness Philippine inherited the estate. Sadly, the Baroness passed away in August 2014 but her family legacy is intact as her descendants continue to operate the estate.

The vineyard soils consist predominantly of inhospitable gravel, allowing Cabernet Sauvignon to shine to its purest expression. With 203 acres under vine, 77% are planted to Cabernet, while the remainder is home to Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Often referred to as exotic in style, Mouton Rothschild's grand vin broke the record for the world's most expensive wine in 2006 when a twelve-bottle lot of the 1945 vintage was sold Christie's auction for $290,000.
