Mouton Rothschild 1er Grand Cru Classé Pauillac, 2017

Château Mouton Rothschild 2017 is a superb expression of Pauillac, combining power, precision, and the unmistakable finesse that has made this First Growth one of Bordeaux’s most coveted names. Crafted from a classic Cabernet-led blend, it offers the depth and structure collectors look for, along with the refinement that has defined Mouton Rothschild since it was elevated to Premier Grand Cru Classé status in 1973.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine shows a deep, dark ruby color with excellent concentration. The nose is refined and layered, with notes of blackcurrant, cedar, graphite, violets, and subtle spice, supported by hints of cocoa and polished oak. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, with dense dark fruit, firm yet finely woven tannins, and a long, elegant finish marked by mineral freshness and classic Pauillac character. This is a wine with outstanding aging potential, and it will continue to evolve gracefully for decades, developing greater complexity and nuance over time.

Production
The grapes come from the gravelly terroirs of Pauillac, where well-drained soils and a maritime climate help Cabernet Sauvignon achieve remarkable ripeness and structure. The 2017 vintage was crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, with careful parcel selection and meticulous harvesting to preserve purity and balance. Vinification is carried out with great precision to highlight the estate’s signature richness, elegance, and longevity.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with premium dishes such as roast lamb, beef filet, venison, duck breast, and aged hard cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C for the best expression of its aromas and structure. Decanting for 1–2 hours is recommended, especially if enjoyed in its youth, to allow the wine to open fully and soften its tannins.

Producer
Château Mouton Rothschild is one of Bordeaux’s legendary First Growth estates and a benchmark producer in Pauillac. The estate’s modern reputation was shaped significantly under Baron Philippe de Rothschild, who helped elevate its stature worldwide and made the château famous for its artist-designed labels. Today, it remains one of the most admired names in fine wine, known for exceptional quality, collectability, and consistency across top vintages.
