Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1993
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Both lots are offered in cartons
Tasting Note: Mouton's 1993 has turned out exceptionally well. The color is a healthy, brilliant purple, and the wine's aromatic personality borders on ostentatious, with its display of cassis fruit, minerals, lead pencil, Asian spices, caramel, vanilla, and toasty oak. Spicy, with great purity of fruit, this medium-bodied wine exhibits fine density, an attractive inner core of ripeness and extraction, and a moderately tannic, surprisingly long finish. Given the high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon (84, the 1993 will firm up and close, but there is plenty of sweet fruit in this unquestionably successful wine. Drink it over the next 15-20 years. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #91 (Feb 1994)
