2009 Monton Rothschild (RP99+) The 2009 Mouton Rothschild has a striking label from Anish Kapoor. The wine is a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Merlot that begs comparison as a young wine with what the 1982 tasted like in 1985 or, I suspect, what the 1959 may have tasted like in 1962. Representing 50% of their production, the wine has an inky purple color to the rim and not terribly high alcohol for a 2009 (13.2%), but that is reflected by the high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a remarkable nose of lead pencil shavings, violets, creme de cassis and subtle barrique smells. It is stunningly opulent, fat, and super-concentrated, but the luxurious fruit tends to conceal some rather formidable tannins in the finish. This is an amazing wine that will be slightly more drinkable at an earlier age than I thought from barrel, but capable of lasting 50 or more years. Kudos to the Baroness Philippine de Rothschild and the entire Mouton team, lead by Monsieur Dalhuin. - Robert Parker 2012 2009法国波尔多一级庄木桐酒庄红葡萄酒 这款2009年份的木桐红酒具有来自安尼施·卡普设计的独特酒标。这款红酒具有88 ％的赤霞珠和12％的梅洛。作为一款年轻的红酒，我认为它可与1982年份的木桐红酒在1985年、或者1959年份的木桐红酒在1962年的口感相比肩。精选所收成葡萄的50%，酿成了这款酒色为深紫色，然而由于这款2009年份的木桐使用了极大比例的赤霞珠，造就了这款酒精度并不过高(13.2%)的佳酿。这款红酒闻起来有铅笔屑、紫罗兰、黑醋栗和丝丝橡木桶的芳香。它具有极为丰富、浓郁并且极致浓缩的口感，而在余味中，大量的果香也极好地掩盖了这款红酒过于强大的单宁。这是一款令人惊艳的红酒，尽管依我之见，它在酒桶中尚年轻的时候可能更为值得品尝，但它能够至少窖藏50年。赞誉献给菲丽嫔·德·罗斯乔德女男爵和达尔万先生领导的整个木桐团队。
