Details
Offered in original wooden case
Recently removed from excellent cellarage
Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1993
Pauillac, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
Tasting note: First noted in April 1995: deep, youthful ruby; fruit and oak with strange minty, herbal, honeyed, rustic smell; lightish style, attractive. The following November at the opening of Les Arts du Vin Exhibition in Brussels, some flesh but very tannic and absolutely unready for drinking. After a further two years, settling down to be a good mouthful, developing some of its inimitable spicy nose and sweetness. But not a long-haul wine. Last noted at the MW tasting, Nov 1997 *** Drink soon. Michael Broadbent, Vintage Wine
