Winemaker Emmanuel Danjoy and co-owner Philippe Sereys de Rothschild were on hand to guide me through their 2023s at Mouton-Rothschild. "We started picking on September 7, and then for the next two weeks, we just picked the Merlot, Cabernet Franc and young Cabernet Sauvignon blocks, so by September 23, we had only picked one-third of the crop,” Danjoy tells me. “So, all the Cabernet Sauvignon was picked in the final week of September. The vines relaxed after the September showers, giving us more polished tannins. This year, we used slightly less pressed wine as we had lots of tannins from the skin to choose from.”
