Parker about Château Mouton Rothschild 2004
Last tasted three or four years ago, the 2004 Mouton-Rothschild is a satisfactory wine, even if in my opinion it pales again subsequent success in so-called "challenging" vintages such as 2006 or 2008. It came across tight and broody on the nose, a hint of seaweed tincturing the black fruit, later on a whiff of smoke. It does not feel as refined as either the 2004 Lafite-Rothschild or the 2004 Latour. The palate is medium-bodied and shows more class than the aromatics: cohesive and with just the right amount of grip, a little chewy perhaps but with a pleasant saline sensation towards the "correct" finish. It ticks all the boxes but does not go that extra mile. Tasted September 2016.

Château Mouton Rothschild 2004
Château Mouton Rothschild 2004 is a fine red wine from the Bordeaux region of France. The renowned Château Mouton Rothschild winery is located in the Pauillac appellation and is one of the most famous and respected wineries in the world.
The 2004 vintage in Bordeaux was characterized by a somewhat cooler growing season and a longer ripening period for the grapes. This resulted in a somewhat late, yet still high-quality harvest. Château Mouton Rothschild 2004 showcases the typical characteristics of its terroir and grape varieties in an elegant and balanced manner.
The wine presents itself with a deep ruby red color, which indicates its concentration and youthfulness. On the nose, it unfolds a complex bouquet of ripe dark fruits such as cassis, blackberries, and black cherries. These aromas are accompanied by notes of cedarwood, tobacco, spices, and a subtle floral component.
On the palate, Château Mouton Rothschild 2004 displays impressive structure with silky tannins and remarkable balance. The wine is full-bodied and powerful, yet with remarkable elegance and finesse. The fruity aromas continue, accompanied by nuances of dark chocolate, coffee, undergrowth, and a subtle mineral presence.
This vintage is already well-developed and offers a wonderful drinking experience. However, Château Mouton Rothschild 2004 can still age in the bottle and gain complexity.
Château Mouton Rothschild 2004 is an exceptional wine that perfectly represents the class, terroir, and tradition of the winery. It pairs perfectly with aged beef, lamb dishes, or strong cheeses.
