CHÂTEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD 1983

Wine 1983 1er Cru Classé  Bordeaux Pauillac

The Château Mouton Rothschild 1983 label was created by painter Saul Steinberg. A work that represents an empty beach where man is no more than a speck on the horizon, pastel-tinted skies where the sun is represented by trompe-l'oeil stamps. It is this new look at the world, both peaceful and disenchanted, expressed by his design for the label of this marvelous Pauillac.
Château Mouton Rothschild 1983 is a very fruity, remarkably balanced wine, bringing length, amplitude and aromatic fullness. This Premier Cru Classé is made from 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot.

Jean-Marc Quarin January - 2003
Jean-Marc Quarin
Dark red color. Intense. Barely evolved. Bright. Nose of medium intensity. Fresh fruit. Notes of ink, licorice, cedar and ash. Evokes spices and the south. Very intense when swirled. Touch of vanilla making it smooth. Smoothness dominates the taste of this wine from start to finish. Consistent, fleshy and very flavorful, it advances juicy and fat after the mid-palate and leaves a complex finish with varied and rich flavors that make it impossible to spit out! It is long and very good. Therefore can be drunk as long as the pleasure is there. Return on the palate of creamy notes, cedar, with a grain of tannin still firm and slightly chalky. Harvested late, between 3rd and 11th October. This explains the absence of dryness.

Wine Spectator October - 1994

Super-refined 1983 Bordeaux with an excellent deep ruby color and intense cigar-box, plum and berry aromas and flavors; there's even a hint of mint. It's full-bodied but very reserved in style with fine tannins and a seductively long finish.

Wonderful to have a chance of adding to my experience of the '83 clarets, as I think I've now tasted all first and second growths apart from Lafite. Colour is a solid, dark ruby. The nose offers up gorgeous scents of rich blackcurrant with lovely complexity of mocha coffee, pencil-shavings and spice. There's a distinct aroma of black olive that adds an edge. The palate is medium-bodied and very graceful, with a warmth of black fruits and sweet oak, easy tannins and really tremendous length. The whole picture is very subtle and multi-layered. This is a truly lovely wine, whose charms reveal themselves more slowly than the Monte Bello.

Strong ruby garnet, delicately ochre-tinged, broader watery rim. On the nose fine red berry compote, beeswax, fine tobacco nuances, multi-layered, but also with mature tones. On the palate fresh, medium texture, finesse-rich acid arc, delicate roasted aromas on the finish, mineral and persistent, fine coffee notes on the finish, a pleasant food companion, has declined a little recently, to be enjoyed with much pleasure. From the single bottle one already asks oneself the question: How much longer.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
The classic Mouton lead-pencil, cedary nose has begun to emerge. This medium dark ruby, elegant, medium-bodied wine will never be a great or legendary Mouton. The flavors are ripe and moderately rich. With good depth and some firm tannins to resolve, this offering from Mouton is bigger and richer than the 1981, 1979, or 1978. Austere by the standards of Mouton and the vintage, the 1983 resembles the chateau's fine 1966. Anticipated maturity: Now-2015.

For a First Growth, the elements just don’t quite mesh together. The color was light, with bricking at the edge. Coffee and cassis on the nose. The fruit was decent, the wine had some depth, but it lacked excitement and complexity.

Dark crimson and rather luxurious-looking. Very polished and sumptuous – beautifully-knit nose. Very polished tannins and quite a bit of tannin tucked away on the end. Not heavy but a class act. First-growth quality confirmed. Super fresh and clean on the finish. At peak now. Not that concentrated.

Château Mouton Rothschild

Mouton Rothschild is undoubtedly one of the most famous wine estates in the world. In the Pauillac AOC, it has been a First Growth in the official 1855 Bordeaux wine classification since 1973.

Purchased in 1853 by Nathaniel de Rothschild, Brane Mouton entered into legend under the name Château Mouton-Rothschild. It was with the advent of Baron Philippe de Rothschild that Mouton truly became the monumental 1st Growth that it is today. Mouton Rothschild 1945 and 1982 are among their finest vintages. Beyond the construction of cellars and buildings, and the accession to First Growth status, it is the passion of a lifetime rediscovered in action by this exceptional man.

Classified as a Second Growth in 1855, Château Mouton Rothschild has been a First Growth since 1973. Its motto "First I cannot be, second I do not deign to be, Mouton I am" has thus become "First I am, second I was, Mouton does not change".

The elegance and magic of this wine have thus charmed the greatest contemporary artists who, each year, illustrate Mouton's priceless wines with their art by creating an original work on the label. Château D'Armailhac and Château Clerc Milon follow in the footsteps of this qualitative concern of the Rothschild family.

The great vintages of Château Mouton Rothschild are: 1994, 1989, 1986, 1985, 1983, 1982, 1970, 1966, 1962, 1961, 1959, 1955, 1953, 1949, 1947, 1945
