An unusually Cabernet-dominated blend that's 81 Cabernet Sauvignon, 17 Merlot, and 2 Cabernet Franc aged 18 months in 50 new French oak, the 2017 Le Petit Mouton De Mouton Rothschild boasts a deep ruby/purple color to go with classic Pauillac notes of blackcurrants, lead pencil, graphite, and green tobacco. Rich, medium to full-bodied, and surprisingly powerful, it has a soft attack yet builds beautifully on the palate, with ripe tannins and a great finish.
