Wine-growing terroir

Grundsätzlich stammt er aus Trauben jüngerer Reben aus dem Weinberg auf dem “Plateau de Mouton”. Dieses Terroir besteht aus tiefem Kies, der auf einem Kalksteinuntergrund liegt. Die Talkerben ermöglichen einen guten Wasserabfluss hin zur Gironde und fördern so eine natürliche Entwässerung der Rebgärten.

Winemaking

Harvest in crates, fermentation in Mouton's legendary oak vats, aging for 19 to 22 months in new oak barrels.

Bottle closure

Cork

Packaging

Wooden box

Château Mouton Rothschild

The property, located in the heart of Médoc in Pauillac, was acquired in 1853 at auction by Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild. Magnificently exposed on the side of a small hill, the Château Mouton Rothschild vineyard extends over 90 ha.
