Lots of fresh currants and black cherries on the nose together with some hints of fresh tobacco coming from the new oak . The palate is sweet with velvety tannins, the fruits are dark and exotic with a hint of spices. This is not the blockbuster we are used to at this stage but all the ingredients are there. It is a very elegant style of Mouton and one that will reward customers early but will definitely hold for the long term. Double whammy. Max Lalondrelle – Fine Wine Buying Director
