Winemaker Notes
Powerful, elegantly oaked wine with aromas of red and black fruits, spice, and lightly toasted notes that showcases the tradition of Bordeaux winemaking expertise
The Mouton Cadet and Ryder Cup partnership reflects the perfect match between two worlds that share the same values: technical skill, respect for tradition and modernity, and elegance. The 2016 Ryder Cup tournament was held at the Hazeltine Golf Club in Minnesota, ending in a United States victory, its first crown since 2008, on Sunday, October 2.
The eye-catching sketched label was designed by legendary golf course architect, Robert Trent Jones Jr.
Critical Acclaim
All Vintages
In most of France, wines are named by their place of origin and not by the type of grape (with the exception of Alsace). Just like a red Burgundy is by law, always made of Pinot noir, a red Bordeaux is a blended wine composed mainly of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Depending on the laws of the village from which the grapes come, the conditions of the vintage and decisions of the winemaker, the blend can be further supported by Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petit Verdot and in rare cases, Carmenere. So popular and repeated has this mix of grape varieties become worldwide, that the term, Bordeaux Blend, refers to a wine blended in this style, regardless of origin.
