Description

Robert Parker''s Wine Advocate 29/04/2005 Dense purple to the rim, this wine exhibits the classic cassis aroma that is so characteristic of Mouton. Medium to full-bodied, tannic, powerful, and cut somewhat from the 1988 mold, this is a backward, chewy, well-endowed Mouton-Rothschild that will require considerable patience from those who purchase it. A blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot, the wine needs a good decade of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2030+. Another candidate for wine of the vintage, there are only 20,000 cases of the 2002 Mouton Rothschild (there are 25,000 cases of the 2000). Made from low yields of 31 hectolitres per hectare, it is a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot. The colour may be the most saturated and opaque of any Medoc-based Cabernet-based 2002. It is a broad flavoured offering displaying telltale crème de cassis intermixed with smoke, cocoa, leather, and licorice. Still excruciatingly tannic, but incredibly dense, powerful, and rich, the phenolic measurements were nearly off the charts for this full bodied, monster sized Mouton. Given most Mouton’s track records, I suspect the 2002 will shut down after bottling, and perhaps need a minimum of 10-15 years to reemerge. This is unquestionably a vin de garde for long term cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2040 (94+)
