Château Mouton Rothschild 2019 has an intense robe that enchants the eye with its garnet color and violet reflections. On the nose, simply pleasing. Beautiful mango on the side, light orange zest. With precision and freshness, the aromatic bouquet reveals notes of small black fruits reminiscent of blackberry and black cherry. Gradually, licorice and mineral notes appear. On the palate, the mouth unfolds a wonderfully supple and enveloping texture that highlights racy and enveloping tannins. The mouth stays in that delicate, juicy, delicious range of the nose, but it gets an insane tension to it, an insane freshness. The tannins are silky and velvety, but the wine has a sensational grip. The acidity is not aggressive, it’s just tartness, not pungent acidity. The vintage gives a sense of fleshy and harmonious sweetness. With power and harmony, the distinguished finish extends for a long time, leaving a tasty sensation on the palate.

Opus One 2019 offers intense aromas of black plum, blueberry, cassis, and dried rose petals, accented by mineral nuances. The creamy texture reveals gentle acidity and fine tannins. There’s a subtle tension among flavors of dark fruit, fresh herbs, espresso and cocoa. A delicate bitterness of dark chocolate lingers on the finish. Brilliant, an absolutely masterful wine that you could enjoy at release because it sings out loud in such fabulous balance. But if you forget him in the cellar, you can also be so really happy when rediscovered

Superb deep purple-red color. The first nose is both intense and subtle. The fruit is ripe and agitation reveals the aromatic complexity of this aromatic complexity. The wine’s attack is incredibly smooth and delicate. Then it unfolds, filling the mouth without ever “”showing muscles””. The tannins are tight without harshness, subtle and bewitching. The finish is long, fragrant. Once again, Haut-Brion astonishes with its ability to sublimate the complementarity of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Artwork Description
“For several years, Reso has been deeply engaged with informal art and abstract expressionism, continuously exploring new avenues for artistic expression. In 2011, he embarked on an experimental journey with abstract series, marking a pivotal moment in his artistic career.
Reso’s artworks exude a powerful dynamism, movement, and speed, mirroring his energetic approach to creation. Drawing inspiration from K.O. Goetz’s experimental painting technique, he employs swift, impulsively placed squeegee gestures and spontaneous interventions, interspersed with moments of reflection and contemplation. This dance-like choreography on the canvas showcases Reso’s intuitive and physical connection to his work.
Similar to the renowned painter Jackson Pollock, Reso lays the canvas flat on the floor and applies sweeping movements to it, utilizing the momentum of his entire body. With skilled precision, he adds and removes torn strips of paper on the canvas, forming intricate shapes and patterns that interact harmoniously. The interplay of positive and negative spaces, along with layered colors, infuses Reso’s paintings with depth and sophistication.
Reso’s mastery of color, form, and movement imbues his works with a unique energy and vitality, transforming them into a captivating dance of colors and shapes. His ability to balance control and spontaneity, coupled with the refined use of paper strips, creates an exquisite interplay of forms, colors, and textures. Each abstract painting invites viewers to immerse themselves in a world of imagination, encouraging diverse interpretations.
Through his ingenious fusion of abstract art with life and movement, Reso contributes a distinctive and remarkable presence to contemporary art.”
Wineries Description
In 1853, Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild acquired Château Brane-Mouton at auction. Located in the heart of the Médoc, in Pauillac, he renamed the property Château Mouton Rothschild. In 1924, Baron Philippe de Rothschild took over the reins of the property. A visionary, he decided to initiate bottling directly on the property while designing the label of the wine. 1973 marked the year when Château Mouton Rothschild became a 1er Grand Cru Classé. Château Mouton Rothschild is an emblematic example of the great wines of Bordeaux around the world.
When Château Mouton Rothschild was officially recognized as Premier Cru in 1973, Baron Philippe de Rothschild was able to change the proud inscription on his label “”Premier ne puis, second ne daigne, mouton je suis”” (First I may not be, Second I may not call myself, Mouton I am) to “”Premier je suis, second je fus, Mouton ne change”” (First I am, Second I was, Mouton doesn’t change).
Located northwest of Bordeaux, in the Médoc, the vineyard of Château Mouton Rothschild covers 90 hectares. The vines are planted on gravelly soils that capture the heat and release it during the night, thus favoring the maturation of the grapes. These poor and draining soils rest on a clay-gravel subsoil, giving this great Pauillac wine a singular power, elegance and tannic structure.
Opus One is the dream come true of two men: Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Château Mouton Rothschild in Bordeaux and Robert Mondavi, winemaker and Napa Valley icon. Together, the founders worked to create a unique wine of impeccable quality. This quest for excellence continues to guide each vintage, and will be carried forward by generations to come. The Opus One estate consists of four parcels of hedge trimmed vines. The vineyards are located in Oakville, on the famous “”Oakville Alluvial Fan””. These are alluvial soils, the very soils that give the Cabernet Sauvignon grape what it takes to thrive to absolute greatness. The winemaking teams cultivate five traditional Bordeaux grape varieties with unfailing expertise, passion and motivation. Through rigorous yet respectful vineyard work, this vital human intervention enhances the qualitative potential of every vintage.
It was in the 1st century A.D. that the first vines appeared
Haut-Brion’s gravelly hilltops. In 1521, Haut-Brion became the first Bordeaux cru to be named after its terroir, and no longer by the name of its owner or parish, making it the world’s first Grand Vin in the world, leading to the rare distinction of Premier Grand Cru Classé in the 1855 Classification, the only Cru outside the Médoc Médoc to be included in this prestigious classification. In 1935, Clarence Dillon acquired Château Haut-Brion, Clarence Dillon restored the estate to its former glory back into the inner circle of the world’s most legendary wines. This extraordinary vision, bold and courageous, is perpetuated today by the 4th generation of the family, embodied by its president, Prince Robert de Luxembourg. Located in the commune of Pessac, just a few kilometers from Bordeaux, Château Haut-Brion – the first of three estates acquired by the Dillon family – is the oldest wine estate in the region.
