An utterly classic wine from the esteemed house of Rothschild, one of Bordeaux's greatest. The nose leads with blackcurrant and cherry, with hints of spice in the background. The gravel and savouriness of the wine are on show in the palate, accentuated by elegant tannins. The complete package.

Want to get a taste for top quality Bordeaux, but don’t fancy remortgaging your house just yet? Mouton Cadet has been one of the premier French wine region’s best kept secrets for some time now; an affordable and approachable sister wine to many of the Rothschild family’s world-beating wineries, which works with premium vineyards all across the Gironde river basin. The dedicated vintners behind this label have been working with the finest Bordeaux wines for decades, and it’s absolutely thrilling to be able to taste a high drinkable, food-friendly Bordeaux which has been made by those who know the region’s appellations better than anybody else. Mouton Cadet is all about shining a light on the grape growers, winemakers, and master blenders of Bordeaux, and bringing their skills and expertise to a wider (and let’s face it, less affluent) audience. That’s not to say that Mouton Cadet red wines lack quality or distinction: these wines are made from grapes grown in superb terroirs, and raised with incredible attention to detail which result in a truly luxurious and sumptuous drinking experience. It’s the kind of wine the average Joe in Bordeaux will enjoy with his or her dinner… and if you’ve ever been to this part of France, you’ll know full well that this is by no means a bad thing!
