Description
The 2000 vintage of Château Mouton Rothschild stands as one of the most celebrated releases of the modern era — a true masterpiece from Pauillac. It captures the grandeur of the new millennium with exceptional balance, power, and refinement.
The bouquet is profound, revealing layers of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, cigar box, and graphite, intertwined with subtle notes of spice and truffle. On the palate, it is rich and concentrated, yet perfectly structured, offering velvety tannins and remarkable freshness. The finish is long, complex, and endlessly evolving.
A collector’s treasure and an unforgettable experience in every glass.
