Mouton Cadet Releases Cuvée Héritage Rouge for Thanksgiving Tradition

BORDEAUX, France, Nov. 10, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Mouton Cadet, a brand with a rich history dating back to 1930, has released a new wine, Cuvée Héritage Rouge, to celebrate the spirit of Thanksgiving and the traditions that bind families together. The wine, inspired by the original Mouton Cadet label of the 1950s and honoring the vision of Baron Philippe de Rothschild, is a tribute to the enduring legacy behind the brand.

The 2022 vintage of Cuvée Héritage Rouge is an elegant blend of 78% Merlot and 22% Cabernet Sauvignon, designed to complement the rich flavors and diverse traditions of the Thanksgiving table. According to the press release, the wine offers a harmonious expression of ripe fruit flavors, subtle notes of vanilla and spice, and finely integrated tannins, making it both approachable and sophisticated. It has recently been awarded 91 points by Wine Enthusiast, highlighting its quality and appeal.

Mouton Cadet Cuvée Héritage embodies the values that have shaped the brand for nearly a century: authenticity, craftsmanship, and the joy of bringing people together around the table. The distinctive label, inspired by the historic Mouton Cadet design first introduced in the mid-twentieth century, serves as a reminder that great wines have the power to connect past and present, creating memorable experiences for every generation around the table.

The wine is crafted with the spirit of sharing in mind. Its generous fruit flavors pair naturally with roast turkey and cranberry dishes, its refined tannins enhance stuffing, gravy, and roasted vegetables, and its delicate spice notes echo the seasonal aromas of Thanksgiving cuisine. The balanced and versatile profile of the wine accompanies the entire meal, from the welcome toast to the last shared stories around the table.

Since its creation in 1930, Mouton Cadet has maintained a privileged relationship with its winegrowers, built on trust and collaboration. This unique approach is strengthened every day through close cooperation between the technical team of seven oenologists and the Mouton Cadet community of winegrowers. From vine pruning to winemaking in each grower's cellar, every stage is carried out jointly in accordance with a strict set of specifications. This unique operating model was formally recognized through the Fair for Life certification awarded to Mouton Cadet Red starting with the 2022 vintage.

Mouton Cadet Cuvée Héritage 2022 is available at selected wine retailers, fine dining establishments, and online wine merchants across the United States. The suggested retail price is $25.99 per 750ml bottle.

The wine is a symbol of continuity, celebrating the knowledge, passion, and craftsmanship that are transmitted from one generation to the next. As families gather to celebrate Thanksgiving, Mouton Cadet Cuvée Héritage invites wine lovers to reconnect with the traditions, stories, and moments passed down from one generation to the next.
