"The robe is of the densest black, profound and vibrant. The aromas are complex, fine and delicate, with redfruit scents and spicy, toasted nuances. The freshest of sensations on the palate, powerful and rich, with precise, juicy, concentrated tannins. The finish is long-lasting and fleshy, nicely defined, full and gourmand. It reveals the richness of the terroir of Château Pichon-Longueville allied with the plenitude of Cabernet Sauvignon. "
“Monumental, there is no better word to describe this vintage. Roundness in every single aspect of the wine: elegance, freshness and great acidy that gives very fine layers surprisingly detectable on the nose and at the first sip. Colore 2019 celebrates my 20th anniversary as a winemaker. It has been a great journey since 2000, full of satisfactions and now with this vintage I finally close the circle. My wines at the beginning were looking for structure and concentration, in 2009 I realized that “elegance” should have been the main drive. In 2019 I did it!” - Bibi Graetz, winemaker

2020 Artwork: Château Mouton Rothschild famously unveils a new artwork for each new vintage a release. The commission for this vintage was given to the Scottish artist Peter Doig, born in 1959. For Mouton 2020, the painter combines echoes of Cézanne and Van Gogh with a fascinating personal reverie on the nocturnal birth of a great wine, which the strange magic of a tine on a guitar seems to quicken into life.
