Mouton Rothschild Pauillac, France 2009 750ml Rhone Blend juicy and tannic with lotsDeep garnet colored, the 2009 Mouton Rothschild gives up bold earthy notions of underbrush, tilled soil and fungi over a core of crme de cassis, plum preserves and Indian spices with a waft of camphor. Full bodied with a firm, velvety tannin texture and packed with black fruit preserves and exotic spice layers, it has seamless freshness and a very long, decadently fruited finish. 99 Pts Robert Parker
