Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1989
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Tasting Note: The 1989 Mouton-Rothschild is the superior wine. The 1989 displays a dark ruby color that is already beginning to reveal significant lightening at the edge. The bouquet is surprisingly evolved, offering up scents of cedar, sweet black fruits, lead pencil, and toasty oak. This elegant, medium-bodied restrained wine is beautifully made, stylish, and not dissimilar to the 1985. It is an excellent to outstanding Mouton that should be close to full maturity in 4-5 years; it will drink well for 15-20. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #109 (Feb 1997)
