Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend

Surprisingly this 2009 Mouton is drinking extremely well. Tannins, fruit and acid are well balanced.

The 2009 Mouton is modern, cool and stunning. Appropriate therefore that Anish Kapoor designed the label. Smoke, cherry, leather, herbs, tobacco meld together. Rich and yet fresh. Some vanilla and mocha elements come through on the finish. Grippy tannins, this wine has a long way to go.

Still young and fresh. Approachable and lean for a Mouton. Mid fruits. Very 09 smooth.

New Leather tobacco leaf, and black currants. Broad on the palate and dense concentration. Will improve over the next 20+ years

label by amnish kapoor great new vintage

Tasted after 40 minute decant. Simple yet profound. Graphite on the nose. Fresh herbs. Juicy structure. I’m sure it will still go for decades but with a proper 2-3 hour decant it will bring much pleasure.

A few sips for the record. Should go back to it sooner than later...

Mind. Blown.
Amazing 😍

Awesome 2009 but 2010 is more open right now.
