Château Mouton Rothschild 2011 CBO(6x75cl) 92/100 Parker
Couleur sombre, intense, belle. Nez typique de Mouton à la fois exotique et suave, crémeux avec sa note de cassis. Pur. Jolie entrée en bouche pleine et le Mouton Rothschild 2011 se développe savoureux, gras, très fruité et plutôt élancé dans sa structure. Il s'achève charnu, toujours droit, avec des tanins enveloppés et une bonne longueur. Il ressemble à s'y méprendre au profil du Mouton Rothschild 2004.JMQ
Tasted at the Mouton-Rothschild vertical in London, the 2011 Mouton-Rothschild is probably the "weakest" of the releases between 2008 and 2012, although that would be unfairly disparaging what is a perfectly respectable, if rather unexciting Mouton. Here, it has those graphite and cedar aromas present and correct, the former a little more accentuated and with a light sea-spray note emerging with time. The palate is well balanced with cedar and a slight peat-like note infusing the black fruit, rigid in its youth but nicely delineated. As I discerned out of barrel, what it lacks is that peacock's tail on the finish, bolting out of the exit door before you have really got to know each other. Tasted April 2016.Neal Martin
