Le Petit Mouton de Mouton-Rothschild is the esteemed second wine of the legendary Château Mouton Rothschild, a Premier Grand Cru Classé estate in the Pauillac appellation of Bordeaux, France. Its name, which translates to "The Little Mouton of Mouton-Rothschild," clearly signifies its direct connection to one of the world's most famous wineries.

As a second wine, it is crafted from a careful selection of grapes from the same vineyards as the main Château Mouton Rothschild wine. These grapes often come from younger vines or specific plots within the estate that do not make the final cut for the Grand Vin. This allows the winemakers to maintain the highest quality standards for their flagship wine, while also producing a more approachable and earlier-drinking expression of their terroir.

Le Petit Mouton de Mouton-Rothschild embodies the classic style of the estate, with a focus on elegance, power, and structure. It is a blend typically dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, with a significant amount of Merlot and other Bordeaux varietals. While it shares the DNA of its prestigious older sibling, Le Petit Mouton is known for its own distinct charm, offering a glimpse into the quality and signature style of the Rothschild family's winemaking.
