Mouton Rothschild 2009 Pauillac France Bold Red Wine Azienda agricola Grottafumata di Mauro Cutuli On the nose it isDeep 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 Wine Advocate
