In a vintage shaped by restraint and skill, Château Mouton Rothschild 2021 is a striking expression of what First Growth Bordeaux can be when finesse takes the lead. While 2021 offered challenges—cooler conditions, lower yields—it also allowed top estates like Mouton to craft wines of purity, elegance, and classical structure.

The blend is Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant, as always, but here it shows a more architectural frame: aromas of blackcurrant, crushed violets, pencil shavings, and cedar unfold slowly, leading into a precise, mineral-driven palate. The tannins are firm yet ultra-fine, the oak perfectly integrated, and the acidity gives the wine lift and energy without sharpness. This is Mouton in a more contemplative mood—less flamboyant, more focused.

Built to age, yet already hinting at its inner detail, Mouton 2021 is a wine for collectors who value proportion and nuance over opulence. Pair with decades of patience—or, with proper decanting, a rare and refined glimpse into Left Bank classicism.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 96
"The 2021 Mouton Rothschild is gorgeous, just as it was en primeur. A wine of stature and vertical build, the 2021 is wonderfully poised from the outset. Beams of tannin add to an impression of explosive lift. Touches of mocha, spice, new leather, cedar and blood orange begin to emerge with a bit of time in the glass. The Grand Vin is pretty imposing at this stage. I would not be in a rush." -Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

RP 94
"The 2021 Mouton Rothschild unwinds in the glass with rich aromas of dark berries and minty cassis mingled with espresso roast, dark chocolate, smoked meats and toasty new oak. It has taken on weight with élevage in barrel, exhibiting a full-bodied, rich and layered palate that's impressively muscular and multidimensional, with a deep core of fruit and plenty of sweet, powdery structuring tannin, concluding with a long, discreetly carnal finish." -William Kelley

Decanter

D 96
"Gorgeous deep pink purple rim to the glass. The nose is bright and intense, heady with perfumed aromatics and edges of graphite, cocoa and sweet red cherries. Such clarity on the palate, excellent tension from the get go with beautifully expressed cherry and strawberry fruit that has a soft, ripe fleshy core. The tannins are fine but plentiful, coating the mouth providing the structure and frame. This has such a sense of quiet confidence - it's not shouting so much but gently showing off its many layers of fruit, acidity, minerality and freshness. This really grows on you, expanding and deepening as the flavours travel across the palate, coming in waves. Understated and introverted at the moment but still harmonious and classy. I love it." -Georgina Hindle

Wine Enthusiast

"Big, rich and sumptuously smoky, this has density and power. Its blackberry tones are structured, with a core of tannins. This very fine wine has all the classic attributes of a Mouton, just slightly lighter."
