Chateau Mouton-Rothschild
One of the greatest wines estates in Bordeaux and located near the village of Pauillac, Chateau Mouton Rothschild was only elevated to First Growth status in 1973. This is despite it meeting the criteria upon which the 1855 Classification of the Medoc was based. Known for the works of art which take centre stage upon its labels with each successive vintage, its illustrious wines are perhaps finer in style that Lafite and Latour and can take some time in the bottle for its oak to ease into the wine. There's no doubt that the greatest wines of this estate count amongst the finest ever made. The vineyard comprises 90 ha mainly of cabernet sauvignon (81%), with merlot (15%), cabernet franc (3%) and some petit verdot (1%).
