2. Today for the first edition, we would like to
introduce you to…
3. Since 1933, Baron Philippe de Rothschild SA,
located at Pauillac in the Médoc, has been
motivated by a constant ambition: to make the
world's finest wines, each in its own category,
whether the châteaux wines for which it is
responsible – the renowned Château Mouton
Rothschild, a First Growth, and its distinguished
lieutenants, Château Clerc Milon and Château
d'Armailhac – or branded wines, like the famous
Mouton Cadet.
4. Baron Philippe de Rothschild SA has also exported its
know-how beyond Bordeaux: to the Pays d'Oc, with a
range of varietal wines and, more recently, Domaine de
Baron'arques; to California, with Opus One; and to
Chile, with Almaviva.
5. One of the key factors behind the company's
undisputed success is the art of blending, which it
practises with exceptional skill. Baroness Philippine de
Rothschild, the majority shareholder of Baron
Philippe de Rothschild SA, works closely with the
executive directors to maintain, modernise and
develop the family business.
6. As well as telling you more about the company, this site
gives you access to databases, including tasting notes,
Château Mouton Rothschild labels, etc., and offers a
number of virtual tours.
We hope you enjoy discovering the world of Baron
Philippe de Rothschild.
8. Since 1930, Mouton Cadet has been renowned for its
exacting standards and audacity.
The fruit of generous Nature and the work of human
hands, the result of the encounter between an
exceptional terroir and the passion of Baron Philippe de
Rothschild (1902-1988), over the years Mouton Cadet has
consistently combined quality, prestige and know-how in an
expressive, seductive wine. Today, Mouton Cadet has
become the worldwide reference for Bordeaux
Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée wines.
9. An intense, ruby red with purple highlights.
The wine has a rich, open nose with attractive aromas of
red berry fruit (raspberry, cherry) and strawberry jam
accompanied by a touch of menthol.
Round and full on the palate, it displays fine balance, with
an elegant tannic structure and a pleasant range of crisp,
fruity flavours enhanced by a touch of liquorice.
The exceptionally rich flavours and aromas of the long,
succulent finish reveal all the harmony and fullness of the
varietal mix.
