Le PETIT MOUTON Second wine from Château Mouton-Rothschild 2023 Futures

Mouton-Rothschild's second wine, which appeared in 1993, has since made its place among its peers (Carruades de Lafite, Forts de Latour, Pavillon Rouge) by offering each vintage a great Pauillac, full, fleshy, muscular, barely less deep and full-bodied than its famous big brother but with the same cassis finish. Petit Mouton has grown up!

Bettane & Desseauve : 92-93/100 « Encore un peu ferme et sur la réduction, mais avec le corps et la consistance attendue dans ce millésime. »
Le Point : 16/20 
« Nez de maturité, bouche ample, dense, tendue. Elégant, juteux, fait saliver en finale. Plus élégant qu'autrefois. »
Quarin : 93/100 
« Couleur noire. Nez intense, pur, fruité, subtil et délicatement toasté. Il évolue crémeux à l'agitation du verre. Très proche de son aîné. Minutieux en entrée de bouche, charnu au milieu, le vin se développe plus aromatique que de coutume et surtout moins âpre dans la dernière partie du palais. Du coup, il se rapproche à nouveau stylistiquement de son aîné. Très bonne longueur. »
Galloni : 93-95/100 
« The 2023 Le Petit-Mouton is fabulous. It could easy be a Grand Vin at another address. Rich, ample and beautifully resonant in the glass, the 2023 impresses with its notable palate presence. Dark red cherry, pomegranate, cinnamon, rose petal and new leather are some of the many notes that build. The 2023 is seriously impressive. Wow! »
Martin : 91-93/100 « It has an intense nose, mainly black fruit commingling with briar and light estuarine scents. Perhaps the aromatics feel a bit "secretive" at present. The palate is medium-bodied with a concentrated entry. [...] There's a fine bitter edge on the finish; give this Le Petit Mouton three to five years in bottle. »
