ABOUT THIS WINE
The 2003 Chteau Mouton-Rothschild is a blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot, and 4% Petit Verdot, with Cabernet Sauvignon providing the backbone and structure of the wine, while the Merlot and Petit Verdot add roundness and complexity. The grapes were hand-harvested and carefully sorted before fermentation in stainless-steel tanks. After fermentation, the wine underwent malolactic fermentation in oak barrels and was aged for 18 months in 100% new French oak, imparting richness and complexity. The 2003 vintage was marked by a particularly hot growing season, which led to a very early harvest. Despite the heat, the wine maintains a remarkable freshness and balance, thanks to careful vineyard management and precise winemaking. The result is a wine that combines power, elegance, and complexity, with the structure to age for many years.
