Baron Philippe de Rothschild 1999 Mouton Cadet (Bordeaux Blanc)

Country: France / Mouton Cadet
Variety: Bordeaux-style White Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Baron Philippe de Rothschild / Bordeaux Blanc

A famous old brand that seems to be living off past glory, this year’s edition is quite neutral in aroma and flavor; you have to work to pick out some mild herb and citrus, but it does show a nice spicy, green-peppercorn character on the finish.
