Details
Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1946
Pauillac, 1er cru classé.
Reserve du Château
Excellent neck level; label bin-soiled
Clearly one of the rarest and fiercely sought of Moutons, the '46 has rewarded those fortunate enough to taste it. Notes Michael Broadbent, "Deep, attractive, still some red...initial spiciness blurred by what I thought might be mercaptan, but...cleared and opened up. Touch of sweetness leading to dry yet spicey finish. Rich. Chewy. Pretty good fruit." JMB
