100 Points - Jeb Dunnuck
Pure perfection, the 2009 Château Mouton Rothschild recalls the legendary 1982 with its extraordinary combination of richness, elegance and sensuality. An opaque ruby color introduces intoxicating aromas of ripe currants, cassis, new saddle leather, spicy oak, tobacco smoke and graphite. Full-bodied, beautifully concentrated and impeccably balanced, it delivers sweet, velvety tannins and remarkable depth. Already irresistible, this masterpiece will continue to improve for another decade and evolve gracefully for 50–60 years when properly cellared.
99 Points - Decanter
A stunningly impressive wine that offers a more generous and approachable personality than the 2010 vintage. Aromas of smoke and spice give way to ripe black plum fruit, while the palate combines supple texture with dense concentration and luxurious richness. Although likely to mature earlier than the 2010, it possesses the balance and structure for equally impressive longevity. The blend consists of 82.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 0.5% Petit Verdot.
99 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Deep garnet in color, the 2009 Château Mouton Rothschild reveals bold earthy aromas of underbrush, freshly tilled soil and wild mushrooms layered over crème de cassis, plum preserves, Indian spices and hints of camphor. Full-bodied and richly textured, it is packed with concentrated black fruit and exotic spice, supported by firm yet velvety tannins, seamless freshness and a decadently long finish.
98 Points - James Suckling
Rich aromas of ripe black currants are complemented by hints of bitter chocolate, creating a wine of opulent fruit and remarkable freshness. Full-bodied and beautifully balanced, it finishes long, dry and refined, offering both immediate appeal and exceptional aging potential. Drink now or cellar.
98 Points - Wine Spectator
A striking contrast to the more powerful 2010, this vintage showcases lush layers of fig, boysenberry and blackberry confiture wrapped in velvety tannins. Notes of anise, tobacco and cocoa carry through the long, luxurious finish. Plush and approachable despite its firm structure, it is already highly enjoyable while possessing the depth to age gracefully for many years.
