Wine 1997 1er Cru Classé  Bordeaux Pauillac

The Château Mouton Rothschild 1997 label is an expressive, atypical and colorful design created by the artist Niki de Saint Phalle. To honor this vintage, the artist reveals a shimmering and festive allegory of the pleasures of the table and tasting. Looking at the drawing, the snake gets all the attention. A "tempting" serpent who is not interpreted by Niki as evil, but rather offers a bottle of wine...
Château Mouton Rothschild 1997 reveals an intense nose, offering aromas of leather, hyacinth and tobacco. This Premier Cru Classé is made from 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Verdot. 1997 is a superb vintage at Château Mouton Rothschild.

Very dense, dark and opaque. Lovely sweetness here, with fine, fine quality on the nose of charry, toasty, espresso and a gorgeous sweetness of fruit; cherry, cassis and some exotic spice. The palate is fine too, with good texture and ripe tannins bolstering quite robust, full fruit. Plenty of cedar and smokiness too, and lovely length. Thought the Lafite has the more intriguing nose perhaps, this wine sneaks it overall and seems to be just starting to come together. Excellent. Drink now - 2015.

Spicy cassis, incense, cedar chest, tobacco and smoke aromas, medium body and a light, black raspberry and spice filled finish are found in this wine. This is showing well today. However, it is not a vintage of Mouton Rothschild I’d hold for further aging.

The appearance is similar to Latour ’97 and in fact the nose seems to have more vigour althought the new oak is not so seamlessly melded. Blackberry, a touch of cassis, but the oak sticks out rather. The palate is full-bodied, quite dense with a touch of opulence and showiness about it (well, it is Mouton!) I am not sure about the balance: difficult to discern the fruit intensity under than oak. Leathery finish.

Château Mouton Rothschild

Château Mouton Rothschild is one of the most iconic wine estates in the world. Located in the Pauillac appellation, it is the only estate in the official Bordeaux wine classification of 1855 to have been elevated to the rank of Premier Cru Classé in 1973, having initially been classified as a Deuxième Cru.

Acquired in 1853 by Nathaniel de Rothschild, the estate — then known as Brane-Mouton — became Château Mouton Rothschild and entered into legend under the impetus of Baron Philippe de Rothschild. A visionary, he profoundly modernized the vineyard, developed the cellars, and imposed an absolute commitment to quality, making Mouton one of the greatest wines of Bordeaux. His motto illustrates this unique ascent: "Premier je suis, second je fus, Mouton ne change."

The singularity of Mouton Rothschild is also expressed through its artistic labels, illustrated each year by great contemporary artists, reinforcing its cultural and heritage aura. This pursuit of excellence can also be found in the other properties of the Rothschild family, notably Château Clerc Milon and Château d'Armailhac.

From the mythical 1945 and 1961 vintages to the 1982 vintage and the 1996 wine, through to a more recent year such as the 2004 wine, the wines of Château Mouton Rothschild rank among the most coveted in the world of wine. The estate complements its grand wine with a second wine, Le Petit Mouton, created in 1993, and a rare white, Aile d'Argent.
