Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Glittering pale straw yellow. The nose displays perfect balance between fresh fruit and acidulated notes such as lemon. A round and fresh aroma with an initial touch of lemon is followed by boxwood and grapefruit flavors which linger on a fresh finish of considerable refinement.

Blend: 69% Sauvignon Blanc, 29% Sémillon, 2% Muscadelle

In 1930, Baron Philippe de Rothschild created Mouton Cadet with the aim of bringing Bordeaux wine to a wide audience. His two ambitions were to ensure constant quality and to promote the Bordeaux vineyard. Now Philippe Sereys de Rothschild, with his sister Camille Sereys de Rothschild and his brother Julien de Beaumarchais de Rothschild, are guiding Mouton Cadet into a new era. Since 2014, they have placed people and the earth at the center of the process of making Mouton Cadet.

Breaking new ground ever since its creation in 1930, Mouton Cadet aims to offer everyone good and beautiful things while respecting the future. Mouton Cadet embodies the perfect combination of tradition and innovation, with an unfailing commitment to quality, authenticity and terroir: strong values shared with a community of 150 winegrowers committed to the same pursuit of continuous improvement for increasingly sustainable winegrowing.

Mouton Cadet is first and foremost about people, a community that works hand in hand so that each wine is a reflection of the quest for excellence and sustainability. For this collection, Mouton Cadet highlights the duology Mouton Cadet X Mathilde and X Nathan, a rosé and a white respectively. Bordeaux wines easy to drink, lively and ecological, inspired by southwest lifestyle, they symbolize both transmission and ecological transition.

Sometimes light and crisp, other times rich and creamy, Bordeaux White Blends typically consist of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. Often, a small amount of Muscadelle or Sauvignon Gris is included for added intrigue. Popularized in Bordeaux, the blend is often mimicked throughout the New World. Somm Secret—Sauternes and Barsac are usually reserved for dessert, but they can be served before, during or after a meal. Try these sweet wines as an aperitif with jamón ibérico, oysters with a spicy mignonette or during dinner alongside hearty Alsatian sausage.

One of the most important wine regions of the world, Bordeaux is a powerhouse producer of wines of all colors, sweetness levels, and price points. Separated from the Atlantic Ocean by a coastal pine forest, this relatively flat region has a mild maritime climate, marked by cool wet winters and warm summers. Annual weather differences create significant vintage variations, making Bordeaux an exciting French wine region to follow.

The Gironde estuary, a defining feature of Bordeaux, separates most of the region into the Left Bank and the Right Bank. Farther inland, where the Gironde splits into the Garonne and Dordogne Rivers, the bucolic, rolling hills of the area in between, called Entre-Deux-Mers, is a source of great quality, approachable reds and whites.

The Left Bank, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, contains the Médoc, Graves, and Sauternes, as well as the region’s most famous chateaux. Merlot is important here as the perfect blending grape for Cabernet Sauvignon adding plush fruit and softening Cabernet's sometimes hefty tannins. Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec may also be used in the Left Bank Bordeaux wine blends.

Merlot is the principal Bordeaux wine variety of the Right Bank; Cabernet Franc adds structure and complexity to Merlot, creating wines that are concentrated, supple, and more imminently ready for drinking, compared with their Left Bank counterparts. Key appellations of the Right Bank include St. Emilion and Pomerol.

Dry and sweet Bordeaux white wines are produced throughout the region from Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon, and sometimes Muscadelle or Sauvignon Gris. Some of the finest dry whites can be found in the Graves sub-appellation of Pessac-Léognan, while Sauternes is undisputedly the gold standard for sweet wines. Small amounts of rosé and sparkling Bordeaux wines are made in the region as well.
