The 2020 Mouton Rothschild is a striking wine and one that I regretted not purchasing en primeur as soon as it landed in my glass. Offering up complex aromas of minty cassis, pencil shavings, loamy soil, cigar wrapper, espresso roast and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, broad and layered, with terrific concentrated, beautifully refined tannins and a long, penetrating finish. Checking in at 12.8% alcohol, its incipient complexity, ineffable sense of completeness and exquisite balance mark it out as the purists' choice among the trio of 2018, 2019 and 2020. In this vintage, the lots that made it into the blend were largely confined to the core gravel terroirs that represent Mouton's heart, meaning that there's a little less to go around. This was the first vintage overseen by Mouton's new technical director, Jean-Emmanuel Danjoy, and he has begun with a flying start.

2020年木桐酒莊紅葡萄酒由84%赤霞珠（Cabernet Sauvignon）、13%梅洛（Merlot）、2%品麗珠（Cabernet Franc）和1%味而多（Petit Verdot）釀造而成，酒精度為13.1%abv，pH值約為3.78。酒液呈深紫黑色，初聞是微妙的新鮮覆盆子和黑莓果香，耐心等待和充分搖杯后綻放出黑醋栗糖錠、玫瑰精油、甘草和小豆蔻的馥郁芳香，還伴有一些雪松木箱、黑松露和碎石的氣息。酒體中等，入口后仿若被緊緊盤繞的彈簧，令人振奮的張力與成熟細(xì)膩且格外堅(jiān)實(shí)的單寧共同支撐起層層交織的黑果和紅果風(fēng)味，還有絲絲泥土及礦物質(zhì)氣息縈繞其間，余味非常悠長、芬芳。這一年的木桐正牌無疑是2018、2019及2020三個(gè)年份中最內(nèi)斂含蓄、最優(yōu)雅的一款，以分外高雅且格調(diào)十足的方式彰顯出木桐芬芳、豐富、時(shí)髦的典型特質(zhì)，而不是無所顧忌地炫耀。它既有非常得當(dāng)?shù)目酥聘校钟猩燥@風(fēng)趣的一面，讓收藏家們不愿錯(cuò)過。

這是一款表現(xiàn)優(yōu)異、令人印象深刻的木桐酒莊紅葡萄酒，華麗而精準(zhǔn)，單寧層次極其豐富?？诟酗枬M，豐富、濃郁的特質(zhì)使其頗具親和力，甚至可以用誘人來形容，同時(shí)它又始終保有清新感。該酒平衡而精致，毫無突兀之處，分外細(xì)膩的單寧使口感更顯豐腴。期待它的進(jìn)一步升華。

2020年木桐酒莊紅葡萄酒色澤深濃，幾乎不透光，飄散出香料盒、古巴黑雪茄茄衣、花朵、黑醋栗酒、黑莓濃縮咖啡、薄荷和些許黑巧克力的豐富芳香。酒體飽滿，風(fēng)味復(fù)雜濃郁、凝練集中且深邃悠長，口感圓潤柔順，如天鵝絨般絲滑，同時(shí)又振奮感十足，讓各要素顯得尤為生動(dòng)鮮活。余味流暢連貫，平衡感上佳，圓潤絲滑、令人愉悅的層層果香表現(xiàn)得恰如其分，在口中縈繞60余秒之久。2020年份是讓-伊曼紐爾·丹喬（Jean-Emmanuel Danjoy）帶領(lǐng)釀制的首個(gè)年份，成績斐然，是年度之酒的有力競爭者。
