Château Mouton Rothschild
An exceptional vintage par excellence for Bordeaux vineyards, 2009 benefited from extremely generous weather conditions which were very favourable for the vine cycle and for the ripening of the grapes. A very sunny summer and cool nights alternating with warm days in September allowed the grapes to concentrate their aromas and colours, resulting in a vintage of exceptional quality.
2009 vintage blend: 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot.
The entire harvest is hand-picked and 100% is put into new barrels for 19 to 22 months before bottling.
