Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider November - 2018
Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider
High tones, medium/full bodied, with more interesting things going on in the nose, with its spice filled, tobacco, cedar, red plum, smoke and leafy aromatics than on the crisp, red berry, sweet and tart palate. No decanting needed, this requires drinking as the fruit is already in a slow state of decline.

The color is beautiful. The nose offers a blend of fruit and tea. This vegetal aspect amplifies on swirling. The wine enters the mouth with fluidity, before showing itself more massive in the middle. It finishes too tannic and too rustic. The year was abundant and rainy. This explains that. Nevertheless, there are more pleasant and better-made 79s.

Medium carmine garnet, violet reflections, still youthful color, delicately earthy. On the nose fine dried fruit notes, plums (roasted). On the palate strict tannins, red berry fruit nuances, preserved cherries, firm core, but not much charm, the emphasis is on acidity. This time fine hints of plum roaster, subtly sweet confit. On the palate firm tannins that appear somewhat hard and dry, red berry fruit, medium texture and length, vital acidity play.

Lots of fragrance and flavour but tarred with the same '79 tannic tar brush. Good flesh, fair fruit, spicy. An attractive if lean mouthful. A bit raw and very tannic.

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 growth in the official 1855 Bordeaux classification to have been elevated to the rank of Premier Cru Classé in 1973, having initially been classified as a Second Growth.

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 absolute quality standards, making Mouton one of the greatest wines of Bordeaux. His motto illustrates this unique ascent: "Premier je suis, second je fus, Mouton ne change" (First I am, second I was, Mouton does not change).

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

Among the most iconic vintages of Château Mouton Rothschild are:

Château Mouton Rothschild 1945, Château Mouton Rothschild 1946, Château Mouton Rothschild 1947, Château Mouton Rothschild 1982, Château Mouton Rothschild 1986, Château Mouton Rothschild 1989, Château Mouton Rothschild 1993, Château Mouton Rothschild 1995, Château Mouton Rothschild 1996, Château Mouton Rothschild 2000, Château Mouton Rothschild 2005
