Petit Mouton 2022
Pauillac
Vinous – Neil Martin – 92-94/100
The 2022 Le Petit Mouton has an intense bouquet with violet infused
cassis and blackberry fruit, just a faint touch of Medjool dates in the
background. It opens extremely confidently in the glass. The palate is
medium-bodied with firm tannins. Structured, granular in texture and
multi-layered, it’s quite difficult to recognize this as a mere Deuxieme Vin.
Long on the aftertaste, this is an outstanding Le Petit Mouton.
Robert Parker The Wine Advocate – 92-94/100
Representing some 29% of the estate’s production this year, the 2022 Le Petit Mouton shares much of the character of the grand vin, offering up a rich bouquet of cassis, dark berries, espresso roast and cigar wrapper, followed by a medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered palate that’s fleshy and concentrated, with powdery tannins and an expansive finish.
