Pauillac, Bordeaux
Chateau Mouton Rothschild is an absolute global icon, spanning 90 hectares northwest of Bordeaux, on the Medoc peninsula.
It is located in what is considered the best terroir in the world. At a climatic level the area benefits from oceanic influences but is at the same time protected thanks to the presence of the Landes forest. The soil is well drained and pebbly, composed of gravel and clay. A poor soil for any crop, except for the vine, for which it is perfect.
It is right here in Pauillac that we can find 3 of the 5 Premier Grand Crus Classès of the Medoc and Graves, according to the 1855 classification: Lafite, Latour and Mouton.
The history of the Chateau is ancient, approximately 180 years of history, and full of events. In 1853 Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild was so eager to have the opportunity to produce his own wine that he purchased the estate and named it after himself. In 1922, Nathaniel’s great-grandson, Baron Philippe, took up the saddle and in 1924 decided to bottle all the wine in the Chateau that was previously sold by the barrel. In 1926 the company was enriched with a barrel cellar over 100 meters long named Grand Chai and designed by the architect Charles Siclis. In 1945 the turning point that would make Mouton Rothschild the collector’s wine par excellence, the label of the vintage. Unique and signed by the greatest contemporary artists, different every year. The one from 1945 with its iconic V is dedicated to the victory of the allies and a work by Philippe Jullian. In 2006 it was sold at auction for 320,000 dollars. The Museum of Wine Art also arrived in 1962, located adjacent to the Grand Chai. In 1973 Chateau Mouton Rothschild reached Olympus with the promotion to Premier Grand Cru Classè according to the 1855 classification. In 1988 Baron Philippe died and was succeeded by his daughter Philippine, a famous actress who decided to put her career aside to become the lady of the Chateau. 1991 recorded the first vintage of the house’s white (heh, allow us the euphemism), L’Aile d’Argent, obtained from Semillon, Sauvignon, blanc and gris, and Muscadelle. In 1993, the little brother of Chateau Mouton Rothschild Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classè arrived, namely Le Petit Mouton, more affordable but no less coveted. In 2003 a special label dedicated to Baron Nathaniel and the company’s 150 was released.
Currently the owners of the Chateau are Camille and Philippe Sereys de Rothschild and Julien de Beaumarchais de Rothschild, Philippine’s 3 children.
