Mouton Rothschild 2004
Mouton Rothschild 2004 sports a painting from Price Charles on its label and was the first vintage for Philippe Dhalluin who initiated a stricter selection process for the grapes. The blend consists of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot.
Although 2004 was one of the driest years since 1962 this wine is described by Parker as medium to full body, excellent purity, hints of forest floor and underbrush, and sweet, velvety tannin
The wine can be drunk now through to 2035 and received 94 points from James Suckling.
