2020 Mouton Cadet Les Parcelles Rose
£4
£4
Les Parcelles (The Plots) is Mouton Cadet`s premium tier, sourced from selected organic parcels across Bordeaux rather than the broader sourcing of their standard range. This represents Baron Philippe de Rothschild`s commitment to showcasing quality terroir within the branded wine category. Fermented in stainless steel with some lees contact to add texture. The 2020 vintage has had considerable time to develop. Strawberry, raspberry and pink grapefruit with subtle herbal notes and mineral edge. Medium bodied with moderate acidity and a rounded, smooth texture. The fruit has softened with age, becoming more mellow than crisp. There`s more weight and substance here than standard Mouton Cadet rose. Off-dry with gentle residual sweetness. Serve chilled (8-10°C). Pairs well with grilled salmon, Asian cuisine, soft cheeses, or charcuterie. The rounded texture works beautifully with richer dishes that would overwhelm crisper roses. Drink within the year to enjoy the developed character.
''The definition of a style for Mouton Cadet wines is the result of that painstaking work and the precise selection of terroirs and parcels. That constant quest for the highest possible quality has culminated in a round, smooth and succulent wine.
All the know-how of Mouton Cadet serves a single purpose: sharing the emotion of wine-drinking with wine lovers all over the world. Its unique style, constant from one vintage to another, is the result of a precise blend of the different grape varieties used to make the wine.''
