B – 21 is a great online wine source. Unlike most organizations that ship UPS ground, they ship FedEx express. That means it gets to you in two days instead of four or five. Also, it has less exposure to riding in hot trucks that can ruin your wine. It’s a great experience. I highly recommend them.

2016 Chateau Mouton Rothschild Ex-Chateau 2022 (750ml)

Cabernet Sauvignon from Pauillac, Bordeaux, France

B-21 Top Recommendation

"This is a multi-dimensional First Growth with a very persistent finish. Mouton-Rothschild? Bingo."
–Neal Martin, Vinous

With a flavor profile as distinctive as its original art labels custom-designed for each new vintage, the iconic Chateau Mouton-Rothschild is one of a kind, known for its elegant and sumptuous richness built on powerful Cabernet Sauvignon that rewards patient collectors with decades upon decades of enjoyment. Benefiting from our long-term relationships in the region, this exciting, limited offer of top-rated Mouton-Rothschild gives Bordeaux lovers and collectors an opportunity to stock up on exceptional back vintages aged in pristine conditions and delivered ex-Chateau, for a limited time at unbeatable pricing that guarantees a quick sell-out.

Known as the only Chateau to ever succeed in changing its 1855 Classification to become First Growth in 1973, Chateau Mouton-Rothschild’s meticulously tended gardens, gleaming new cellars and the stunning Chateau itself are all built to impress, but none outshine the estate's stunning Grand Vins themselves, crafted under the direction of the legendary "Winemaker of the Decade" Philippe Dhalluin who managed Mouton-Rothschild until 2020. Arriving from Brainaire-Ducru in 2003, Dhalluin initiated improvements that have paid quality dividends for years, limiting yields and employing strict selection with only 50% of the harvest making the final cut for the Grand Vin. Located on the Grand Plateau of Mouton neighboring Lafite, Chateau Mouton Rothschild's 83-hectare vineyard for the Grand Vin is planted to 81% Cabernet Sauvignon and the remainder Merlot, Cab Franc and Petit Verdot in mostly a contiguous parcel. Averaging 50 years of age with some over 130 years, the Cabernet Sauvignon vines are planted in unique soils composed of an astounding 98% gravel with the remaining 2% clay on small hills rising up to 29 meters, the highest points in Pauillac. Hand harvested at optimal ripeness by the same dedicated workers year over year, Philippe Dhalluin vinified the grapes from the older and younger vines in each parcel separately, always aging the Grand Vin in 100% new French oak between 19 and 22 months, yielding long-lived wines of incredible depth and concentration with a luscious fruit profile and caressing silky tannins.

Coming from some of the top Bordeaux vintages of the last two decades, the 99pt 2009 Chateau Mouton Rothschild is a "stunning wine" that's simply "magnificent" according to the Wine Advocate's Neal Martin, while the Wine Spectator's James Molesworth calls the 100pt 2010 Chateau Mouton-Rothschild "a battleship of a wine" summing it up as "awesome." Detailing Mouton's signature nuances of "graphite, lead pencil shavings, floral, and Asian spice aromas and flavors," critic Jeb Dunnuck crowned the 99pt 2015 Mouton-Rothschild "one of the longest-lived wines of the vintage" while Inside Bordeaux's Jane Anson called the 100pt 2016 Mouton-Rothschild "monumental," ranked by James Suckling as "one of the most powerful Mouton’s ever" that the Wine Advocate declared, in a word, "magic."

Representing the pinnacle of Bordeaux and among the world's greatest wines, these perfectly cellared selections from Chateau Mouton-Rothschild are available on a limited basis, some ready to enjoy and all poised to reward Bordeaux lovers for decades to come. All outstanding choices, don't hesitate to secure yours – in the blink of an eye, they'll be gone.

Composed of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2016 Mouton Rothschild has an opaque garnet-purple color. WOW—the nose explodes from the glass with powerful blackcurrant cordial, black raspberries, blueberry pie and melted chocolate notions, plus suggestions of aniseed, camphor, lifted kirsch and the faintest waft of a subtle floral perfume in the background. Full-bodied, concentrated, bold and totally seductive in the mouth, it has very fine-grained, silt-like tannins, while jam-packed with tightly wound fruit layers, finishing in this wonderful array of mineral sparks. Magic.

100 points, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate (Issue # 245 - Oct 2019)

Along with the Château Lafite, the 2016 Château Mouton Rothschild is the wine of the vintage from the Médoc and is a truly profound, magical, blockbuster wine in every sense. It’s based on 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, raised in new French oak. Boasting a saturated purple color as well as an extraordinary bouquet of thick black fruits, lead pencil shavings, new saddle leather, and burning embers, with just a hint of its oak upbringing, this beauty hits the palate with a mammoth amount of fruit and texture yet stays fresh, pure, and light on its feet, with a thrilling sense of minerality as well as building tannins on the finish. It’s one of the most profound young wines I’ve ever tasted, and while it will probably keep for three-quarters of a decade, it offers pleasure even today. Bravo!

100 points, Jeb Dunnuck (Feb 2019)

The 2016 Mouton Rothschild bowled me over when I tasted it from barrel. Philippe Dhalluin compares it to the 1986 in terms of intensity of fruit, although there is more maturity and refinement in the tannins apropos of the 2016. Bottled in July 2018, this has an intense bouquet with pixelated black fruit, crushed stone, hints of blue fruit and a touch of India ink. But it is the delineation and focus that take your breath away. The palate is medium-bodied with very supple tannin framing the pure black currant and cassis fruit. The acidity is pitch-perfect, and there is a gentle but insistent grip toward the extraordinarily long finish. Racking my brains to think of another Mouton Rothschild that I have tasted over the last 20 years that was as good as this, I simply cannot come up with one.

Dark ruby, purple color. Aromas of blackcurrants, black truffle, crushed stone, licorice and hints of tar. Full-bodied, deep and vertical on the palate, drawing you in and down. The structure is very tannic and powerful, yet the tannins are folded into the wine. One of the most powerful Moutons ever for me. Try after 2027.

100 points, James Suckling (Mar 2020)

A generous, pure and lush ball of Cabernet, with wave after wave of unadulterated cassis and blackberry puree flavors rolling through. Features notes of roasted apple wood and sweet tobacco, offset by a long tug of sweet earth, but that's all background music to the impressive core of fruit, which steams along like a cruise ship with enough stores in reserve to go around the world twice without stopping. Best from 2025 through 2045.

98 points, James Molesworth, Wine Spectator (Mar 2019)

The rich fruit in this wine nearly envelops the tannins. Flavors of black plums, blackberries and blueberries meld with intense acidity to mask the power and concentration of the polished tannins. With this structure, will age for many, many years. Do not drink before 2026.
