Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1996
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Offered in an original wooden case

Tasting note: The impressive 1996 Mouton-Rothschild offers impressive aromas of black currants, framboise, coffee, and new saddle leather. This full-bodied, ripe, rich, concentrated, superbly balanced wine is paradoxical in the sense that the aromatics suggest a far more evolved wine than the flavors reveal. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2030. By the way, the 1996 blend consists of 72 Cabernet Sauvignon, 20 Merlot, and 8 Cabernet Franc. 94 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 122 (Apr 1999)
