CHâTEAU MOUTON-ROTHSCHILD--VINTAGE 1987
PAUILLAC, 1ER CRU CLASSé. CHâTEAU-BOTTLED
PARCEL: LOTS 691 TO 693 AND 694 TO 695
TASTING NOTE: THIS WOULD APPEAR TO BE SURE A BET FOR THE WINE OF THE VINTAGE. CERTAINLY IT IS THE MOST COMPLETE AND BACKWARD 1987, WITH AT LEAST 10-15 YEARS OF AGING POTENTIAL. THE TOUCHING DEDICATION FROM THE LATE BARON PHILIPPE DE ROTHSCHILD'S DAUGHTER ON THE LABEL IS ALMOST WORTH THE PRICE OF THE BOTTLE. ADDITIONALLY, 1987 WAS THE LAST VINTAGE OF THE BARON AND THUS WILL PROBABLY FETCH A FORTUNE IN 40 OR 50 YEARS. ONE OF THE DEEPEST AND MOST OPAQUE WINES OF THE VINTAGE, WITH A TIGHT YET PROMISING BOUQUET OF CEDAR AND BLACKCURRANTS, THIS WINE EXHIBITS SURPRISING DEPTH, MEDIUM TO FULL BODY, AND PLENTY OF TANNIN IN THE FINISH. ANTICIPATED MATURITY: NOW-2010. LAST TASTED, 11/90. 88 POINTS. ROBERT PARKER, BORDEAUX. A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE, THIRD EDITION.
