Château Mouton Rothschild [Magnum] 2005 Pauillac

Château Mouton Rothschild Pauillac Magnum 2005

マグナムがゆるやかに磨いた、2005年。

深いガーネットからインクに近い紫の色調。カシスやブラックベリー、プラムの豊かな黒果実に、シダー、鉛筆、トーストしたオーク、バニラ、ミント、クローブ、ほのかなスモークのニュアンスが重なります。凝縮した果実味としなやかで力強いタンニン、鮮明な酸、鉱物的な余韻。マグナムならではのゆるやかな熟成が2005年を支えます。ジビエのステーキとともに、特別な日の祝杯に。

Tasting note

Deep garnet to inky purple. The nose offers rich black fruits such as cassis, blackberry and plum, along with cedar, pencil grains, toasted oak, vanilla, mint, clove, ink and a hint of smoke/asphalt. In the mouth, the wine impresses with concentrated fruitiness, supple yet firm grain-like tannins, crisp acidity, and a mineral-like finish. It has a powerfully structured structure, yet is also elegant, and maintains excellent balance, making it suitable for long-term aging. The finish is very long, with fruit, spice and minerals slowly fading away, truly reminiscent of a great vintage of Pauillac.

Food pairing
