Petit Mouton 2018
Le Petit Mouton 2018 — the second wine of the illustrious Château Mouton Rothschild — embodies the bold, opulent character of the Pauillac terroir, shaped by one of Bordeaux’s greatest modern vintages. Crafted mainly from Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and a touch of Cabernet Franc, it mirrors the Grand Vin’s grandeur with youthful vibrancy and approachability. The 2018 vintage offers power wrapped in silk — a wine of depth, perfume, and remarkable precision.
Le Petit Mouton 2018 deserves dishes of equal stature. It pairs superbly with dry-aged ribeye, roast lamb with rosemary and garlic, or beef Wellington. Its concentration and aromatic depth also complement venison stew, duck breast with blackberry sauce, or wild mushroom ragout. For a gourmet vegetarian option, pair with truffle risotto or grilled portobello mushrooms with thyme — the wine’s earthy complexity mirrors these savory notes beautifully. Aged Comté, Pecorino, or a firm Cantal complete the experience. Decant for an hour before serving to fully reveal its layered perfume and velvet structure.
