1990 CHÂTEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD 1990

Médoc - 1er Cru Classé  Bordeaux Pauillac

The label of this 1990 Mouton Rothschild pays tribute to the English artist Francis Bacon and one of his last works. A painting that is both mysterious and intriguing which reveals on a dark background muscular bodies that stretch and contract like a distorting mirror. This dynamic and moving work recounts the artist's love of wine.
Château Mouton Rothschild 1990 offers evolved aromas of blond tobacco, game as well as mineral notes, which are absolutely pleasant. This Premier Cru Classé is made from 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc and 9% Merlot.

Black red. Coffee, cigar box and chocolate aromas. Full-bodied, yet harmonious, with a lovely, silky texture. A caressing and rich wine. Gorgeous.

This sweet, generous Mouton hugs you from the start. The palate is filled with ripe dark berry fruit, cedar and sweet spices with tannins that are gentle, firm and velvety. Balanced, easy to enjoy and love, this is a great vintage for Mouton.

Deep, clear transparent ruby colour. Slightly exotic, with incense, smoky tones, earl grey tea and blackcurrants. Great fruit, quite juicy on the palate, nuanced and complex. Full bodied with great fruit, tight and balanced. Fine tannins, long aftertaste.

Scintillating nose; absolutely gorgeous aromas of vanilla-smothered berries, violet, and a fine, earthy, truffly quality with hints of cedar, coffee and spice. Deep and deliciously inviting. The palate lets this stunning first impression down slightly, with slightly under-powered cherry and blackcurrant fruit. There's a background of sweet oak, and good freshness with balanced acidity and fine tannins.

It appears garnet red in the glass with a rather restrained scent, fine ripeness notes and light rust aromas. The subtle fruit is reminiscent of cassis and slightly candied fruit notes. On the palate, this wine presents itself with a clear acidity, mild tannins and a soft finish. A thoroughly pleasant character in a lighter style.

Color already evolved. Fruity and very open nose evoking a bouquet of aging. Notes of plum, cedar, blackcurrant, smoke. The mouth is melted, pleasant but does not have the flesh and power expected in the middle. It will not go down in the annals of the vintage. Normal length.

A bit on the short side, the red fruits have a spicy tart edge which are followed by its savory side of leaves, herbs and tobacco leaf. Medium-bodied, a bit stoic, this is not really worth the money in today's marketplace. 89 Points

This was a gloriously ripe, round wine – despite being served from magnum.

Château Mouton Rothschild

Mouton Rothschild is arguably one of the best-known wine estates in the world. In AOC Pauillac, since 1973 it has been First Classified Growth in the official classification of Bordeaux wines of 1855.

Bought in 1853 by Nathaniel de Rothschild, Brane Mouton became legendary under the name of Château Mouton-Rothschild. It is with the advent of Baron Philippe de Rothschild that Mouton really becomes the monumental 1er Cru that it is today. Mouton Rothschild 1945 and 1982 are among their finest vintages. In addition to the construction of cellars and buildings, and the accession to Premier Cru status, it is the passion of a lifetime rediscovered in action by this exceptional man.

Classified as a Second Classified Growth in 1855, Château Mouton Rothschild has been a Premier Classified Growth since 1973. Its motto "First not then, second not deign, Mouton am" thus became "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 with their art the priceless wines of Mouton by creating an original work on the label. Château D'Armailhac and Château Clerc Milon follow in the footsteps of this quality 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
