Pepper and spice and a smoky, meaty edge to this. Glossy and open fruit, and smooth on the palate. Joss Fowler, FINE+RARE, April 2015.

The 2014 Le Petit Mouton has a deep and powerful bouquet with blackberry, raspberry preserve, cedar and sandalwood, pencil shavings (the latter becoming more and more evident with time in the glass.) The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannin, plenty of cedar and tar-infused black fruit offset by a fine thread of acidity. It is just missing some depth and fleshiness towards the finish that as a consequence feels a little austere and mean. But I suspect it will improve in bottle. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
Tasted blind. Dark crimson. Light but rather intriguing and dramatic nose. Minty. Slightly raw tannins with some greenness. Far from the ripest 2014 Pauillac! (JR)
The second wine of Mouton-Rothschild is the 2014 Petit Mouton and it’s a head turner as well, and certainly a terrific wine that stands on its own in the vintage. Classic crème de cassis, spice, toasted bread, and toasty oak nuances give way to a full-bodied, silky, elegant 2014 that has a wonderful sweetness of fruit as well as fine silky tannin. Drink it anytime over the coming two decades.
