2014 Chateau Mouton Rothschild – First Growth Elegance from Pauillac
The 2014 Chateau Mouton Rothschild exemplifies the grandeur of this celebrated First Growth estate. From the heart of Pauillac, the vintage reflects both the precision of the winemaking team and the estate’s ability to craft wines that balance richness with elegance. As with all vintages, the 2014 features an exclusive artist-designed label, making it not only a wine but a collectible piece of art.
Tasting Notes
Aromas of blackcurrant, cedarwood, and graphite are layered with notes of tobacco leaf, espresso, and subtle floral tones. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with firm yet polished tannins and flavors of cassis, dark chocolate, and hints of spice. A long, mineral-driven finish underscores its classic Pauillac profile.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
The 2014 blend is composed of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, and 3% Cabernet Franc, matured for approximately 20 months in 100% new French oak barrels. Mouton’s deep gravel soils, overlooking the Gironde estuary, provide the perfect environment for Cabernet Sauvignon, the backbone of the estate’s style.
Investment & Collectibility
As one of the five Bordeaux First Growths, Château Mouton Rothschild is an essential name in fine wine investment and collecting. The 2014 vintage, with its balance and precision, continues to appreciate in both reputation and market value. Perfect for your collection.
Vintage Specifics & Accolades
The 2014 Bordeaux vintage was shaped by a cool summer followed by an exceptional September, which allowed late-ripening Cabernet Sauvignon to achieve full maturity. Pauillac was particularly successful, producing structured yet refined wines built for long aging.
