3 great vintages of Bordeaux in a Luxury case signed Mouton Rothschild

The property

It was in 1853 that Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild acquired Château Brane-Mouton at auction. The property, located in the heart of the Médoc, in Pauillac, was then renamed Château Mouton Rothschild. In 1922, Baron Philippe de Rothschild took over the reins of the property. Visionary, he decided to initiate in 1924 the complete bottling at the château while entrusting the illustration of the wine label to an artist. Each year since 1945, the label of Château Mouton Rothschild is illustrated by the original work of a great contemporary artist. Dalí, César, Miró, Chagall, Warhol, Soulages, Bacon, Balthus, Tàpies, Koons, Doig... an exciting collection that grows each year with a new work and constitutes the famous exhibition "Art and Label". Emblem of the Pauillac appellation, this Premier Cru Classé makes the great wines of Bordeaux shine throughout the world. Today, it is the three children of Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, Camille and Philippe Sereys de Rothschild, and Julien de Beaumarchais de Rothschild who preside over the destiny of Château Mouton Rothschild.

The vineyard

The Château Mouton Rothschild is a Pauillac wine from a 82-hectare vineyard located northwest of Bordeaux, in the Médoc. The vines, which are on average 50 years old, are planted on pebbly gravel soils that capture heat and release it during the night, thus promoting the ripening of the grapes. These draining soils rest on a clay-gravel subsoil, giving the wines of Château Mouton Rothschild a unique power, elegance and tannic structure.

The box

Prestigious Premier Grand Cru Classé of Pauillac, Château Mouton Rothschild unveils in limited edition a Luxury case in an oak wood box bringing together a trilogy of exceptional vintages. Millésima is thus the only merchant with the Luxury case in an oak wood box including the Mouton Rothschild 2000 vintage.

The vintages 2000, 2009 and 2010 undoubtedly rank among the greatest years in the history of Bordeaux.

The Mouton Rothschild oak Luxury case bringing together the 2000, 2009 and 2010 vintages constitutes a collector's box, rare and intended for lovers of great Bordeaux wines.

A true collector's item, the bottle of Château Mouton Rothschild 2000 is adorned directly on the glass with a jewel preserved at the Musée du Vin dans l’Art de Mouton, namely the "little ram of Augsburg" made by the German master goldsmith Jacob Schenauer. Vintage marking the entry into the new millennium, Château Mouton Rothschild 2000 combines concentration and race tannins.
