WEINWISSER: "Tiefe fast schwarze Farbe. Warmes sehr pflaumiges Bouquet, Mahagoninoten, dunkles Caramel, Sojasaucentöne, sehr intensive, aber leicht trockene Aromatik. Im Gaumen viel Aromatik, rauchiges Cassis, wie bei allen Weinen der Domaine Rothschild auch hier eine spürbare Trockenheit in den Gerbstoffen, intensiver Nachklang, dürfte über etwas mehr Weinfett verfügen, um die Gerbstoffe geschmeidiger zu machen."

DECANTER: "A medium-bodied, lighter style of Mouton. Paler in colour, this has a cool, leafy, slightly herbal character with some cooked fruit on the nose. Fresh, black and raspberry characters on the palate. Lacking a bit of concentration, this is at its best now, and finishes a bit short. Harvested 11 September to 30 September. 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot. 55% of production used for the Grand Vin. Drinking Window 2021 - 2021"

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Spicy cassis, incense, cedar chest, tobacco and smoke aromas, medium body and a light, black raspberry and spice filled finish are found in this wine. This is showing well today. However, it is not a vintage of Mouton Rothschild I’d hold for further aging."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "Only 55% of the harvest was utilized for the 1997 Mouton-Rothschild. One of the most forward and developed Moutons over recent years, it possesses all the charm and fleshiness this vintage can provide. A blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot, the wine exhibits a dense ruby/purple color, and an open-knit nose of cedar wood, blackberry liqueur, cassis, and coffee. Fleshy, ripe, and mouth-filling, with low acidity, soft tannin, and admirable concentration and length, this delicious Pauillac will be drinkable in 2-3 years, and should age for 15+. It is an impressive effort for this vintage."
