Chateau Mouton Rothschild - 2008 - Pauillac - 750 ml.

The 2008 Château Mouton Rothschild is a refined and elegant wine that exemplifies the quality of Bordeaux's Pauillac region. It offers an outstanding balance of intensity and grace, making it a wine that will evolve beautifully over time. While it may not have the immediate allure of some other vintages, its complexity and age-ability make it a fantastic addition to any cellar, and it will continue to reward collectors for many years to come. Chinese painter Xu Lei takes up the theme of the ram, an emblem of the illustrious First Growth. The ram, perched on top of a delicately delineated rock, Xu Lei's ram asserts the role of a great wine as a link between people and cultures, from one hemisphere to the other of the "planet wine".
