CHÂTEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD 1985

Wine 1985 1er Cru Classé  Bordeaux Pauillac

Belgian surrealist artist, Paul Delvaux sublimates the Mouton Rothschild 1985 by creating a unique and original design for this label. Paul Delvaux represents here two model and chaste little girls of his drawing seem pensive and invaded by shyness. It is the bunch of grapes, the central element of the drawing, which links the two young women and connects them to each other.
Château Mouton Rothschild 1985 has fruity aromas of blackberries, blueberries and blackcurrants, as well as hints of mint, vanilla incense and cocoa. This Premier Cru Classé is made from 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot.

An exciting wine at the top but not yet over it. Will continue recklessly for another ten years or more.

A beautiful Mouton with impressive intensity, sweet dried fruits and supple, lush tannins. Wonderful to enjoy now - at its perfect peak with a lingering finish.

Strong ruby-garnet, broader watery rim. Dark berry compote on the nose, delicate notes of cassis and chocolate, fine suede leather hints, blackberries, exotic spices, cinnamon, mocha, fine roasted aromas, attractive, typical bouquet. Elegant, almost seems a touch open-knit, distinctive tannins that are well integrated, sweet dark berry note on the finish, dark chocolate, structured with finesse, somewhat demanding nuances on the finish, fine spice and good length, a multifaceted food companion.

Tasted from an Imperiale at the Claret Club -85 Dinner at -The Square-. Interesting this: one of the best -85s but rendered far more reticent and backward in this large Imperiale format. It does have a gorgeous nose if you can wait for an hour and even so, much more generous and expressive than Lafite -85. Touches of pencil box, redcurrant and black truffle here. The palate is tannic, full-bodied and masculine, easing up with aeration, beautifully poised with a touch of black tea and tobacco towards the finish. This seems to be 10-years behind the regular bottle format! Tasted December 2009.

Fully mature, the wine is medium/full bodied, with a fresh, sweet, cassis, cherry, tobacco, spice and green leafy profile. Soft, polished and deceptively easy to drink, there is no reason not to be drinking your bottles, as this is not going to get better from here.

Surprisingly elegant, with lovely tobacco, cherry and berry aromas that blossom on the palate. Moderately soft tannins and a sweet, fruity finish. All finesse and ready to drink.

Rich and sweet initially on the nose but on the palate it's a little bit ordinary – not obviously first growth intensity (this was served blind). Refined and fresh but lightish.

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 wine from the official 1855 Bordeaux classification to have been elevated to the rank of Premier Cru Classé in 1973, after having been initially classified as Second Cru.

Acquired in 1853 by Nathaniel de Rothschild, the estate then named 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 ascension: "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 renowned 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
