Breeding
Aged in barrel for 18 months
On the eye
Deep purple robe with sustained colour and density throughout
On the nose
Broad and layered bouquet revealing ripe red fruits interwoven with notes of cocoa and vanilla, developing secondary complexity with air
In the mouth
Generous attack with silky, dense structure. The palate shows good amplitude and texture, with well-integrated tannins providing framework without dominance. A wine of substance and balance.
Pair with classic Bordelaise preparations: entrecôte à la bordelaise or calf's liver with sweet onions. The wine's structure complements rich, savoury dishes whilst its refinement suits lighter game preparations. Drinking well now, with potential for development over the next decade.

CHATEAU MOUTON-ROTHSCHILD
Set on the celebrated gravel ridge of Pauillac in the Gironde, Château Mouton-Rothschild spans 90 hectares of deep graves and stands as the sole château ever promoted within the 1855 Classification, achieving First Growth status in 1973. Acquired at auction in 1853 by Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild, the estate was elevated to its present standing through the singular determination of Baron Philippe de Rothschild. The blend — Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot — is drawn from yields held to 35–40 hl/ha. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this château for the consistency of its vintages, the precision of its gravel terroir, and its unrivalled place in the history of Bordeaux classification. A cornerstone reference for lovers of great Pauillac.
PAUILLAC
Le Petit Mouton est le second vin du légendaire Château Mouton-Rothschild, expression fidèle du terroir de Pauillac. Ce 2020 déploie une robe pourpre dense, un nez ample aux notes de fruits rouges mûrs et cacao, une attaque gourmande et pulpeuse. À servir avec une belle viande rouge ou un foie de veau aux oignons doux.
