Lying in Twickenham, Middlesex (EHD)
Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1999
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case
Tasting note: Cabernet Sauvignon 78 Cabernet Franc 4 and Merlot 18 First tasted alongside the '98 - a similar colour, more fleshy fruit, ripe Cabernet and oak, less spicy. Very sweet, hovering between lissom and plump ripeness. Deep, velvety, 'toasted' Cabernet aroma that opened up beautifully. 'Fleshy' noted again, dry finish and charm. (****) An attractive wine - say 2012-2025. May 2001. M.B.
