In 2019, this remains great Mouton, with the Merlot picked from 6 September and the Cabernet between 16 and 25 September, the earliest vintage at Mouton. A huge, cassis, opulent bouquet leads to a plush blackcurrant, rich textured taste, exotic and mouth-enveloping. The power is lurking behind the luscious fruit and everything is gloriously in place. Miss this at your peril - I am always bowled over by it. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
