The whole is enhanced by a light aniseed touch. The 2015 Chateau Mouton Rothschild Aile d'Argent offers an ample, thick and very complex attack.

Wine Advocate-Parker :
Blended of 55% Sauvignon Blanc, 43% Sémillon and 2% Muscadelle, the 2015 Aile d'Argent charges forth from the glass with gregarious ripe peach, pink grapefruit and orange blossom notes plus touches of beeswax, fresh hay, acacia honey, baking bread and allspice. Medium-bodied, the palate is tightly wound and satiny textured with wonderful freshness defining the palate and lifting the intense stone fruit and savory layers, finishing very long and very minerally.
