Incredible iodine, oyster, currants, peat and cedar. Yet subtle. Full body, chewy yet polished tannins and great depth and complexity on the finish. I love the spice and blueberry character on the finish. Vibrant. A sexy style of Mouton. Try drinking this in 2022.
Rich, full-bodied, concentrated and deep, it takes effort to step inside the wine, as I suspect it's about the tighten up and go to sleep for at least a decade or so. Still, it is impossible not to find the layers of ripe, lush, powerful, sweet, dark red fruits that fill your palate from start to finish. Texturally, this is exciting and the finish feels just great as the wine builds and expands. This is contender for one of the wines of the vintage.
Unquestionably one of the great wines in the vintage, the 2014 Mouton-Rothschild offers more flamboyance, depth, and texture than just about every other release out there. Crème de cassis, violets, lead pencil, and ample creamy oak notes all emerge from this incredibly sexy, concentrated 2014 that has a terrific mid-palate, sweet tannin, and a great, great finish. Not far off the incredible 2015, it can be enjoyed anytime over the coming 3-4 decades, although 3-5 years of bottle age should do it good.
