Mouton Cadet Bourdeaux – White (C)

Description

🇫🇷 Mouton Cadet Bordeaux White: Vibrant Freshness from Baron Philippe de Rothschild

Mouton Cadet Bordeaux White is the distinguished white wine offering from the legendary House of Baron Philippe de Rothschild, a name synonymous with Bordeaux excellence. Launched decades ago, it remains the world’s most recognized entry point into the diverse and quality-driven world of Bordeaux wines.

This classic white blend is meticulously crafted from selected grapes grown in the best white terroirs of the Bordeaux region, primarily featuring:

• Sauvignon Blanc: Providing its VIBRANT freshness, acidity, and signature citrus notes.
• Sémillon: Contributing roundness, density, and ripe white fruit flavours.
• Muscadelle: Adding a final touch of aromatic refinement.

The wine is aged in stainless steel vats on its lees for several months to enhance complexity while maintaining its crystalline freshness.

Tasting Profile:

• Colour: Brilliant, golden straw yellow with a silvery sheen.
• Nose: VIBRANT and expressive, opening with aromatic notes of lemon zest and grapefruit, which harmonize beautifully with delicate white blossom and hints of exotic fruit.
• Palate: Fresh, round, and dry. The initial citrus attack is followed by a beautiful mid-palate expressing the plush, ripe yellow fruit flavours of white peach and apricot, courtesy of the Sémillon. It is perfectly balanced between crisp acidity and smooth body.
• Finish: Clean, refreshing, and elegant, concluding with a pleasant mineral touch.

Serving Suggestion & Pairing:

Mouton Cadet Bordeaux White is the quintessential wine for an aperitif or a seafood feast.

• Serving Recommendation: Serve well-chilled (10°C – 11°C).
• Food Pairings: Exceptional with seafood (oysters, scallops, grilled fish), fresh salads, asparagus, chicken dishes, and soft goat cheese.
