Mouton Cadet is a world-renowned Bordeaux wine brand. It was first created by Baron Philippe de Rothschild in 1930 as a way to market wine from the legendary Château Mouton Rothschild that did not meet the strict standards for the first label during a difficult harvest year. The name 'Cadet' refers to Philippe's status as the youngest son (cadet) of the family.

Today, the wine is produced primarily in the Bordeaux region of France, sourcing grapes from various partner growers across the appellation to maintain consistent quality and style. The brand remains under the stewardship of the Rothschild family, specifically through the company Baron Philippe de Rothschild S.A., which oversees its global distribution and marketing as one of the most successful branded Bordeaux wines in the world.
