Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1982
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Lot 458 level: bottom neck; lightly bin soiled label, capsule cut to reveal Chateau and vintage branded cork. Lot 459 level: into neck; lightly corroded capsules and lightly bin soiled label. Lot 460 levels: bottom neck or better; 1 capsule cut to reveal vintage and Chateau brand, one very badly stained label and one slightly stained label. Lot 461 level: bottom neck or better; lightly bin soiled labels and slight signs of seepage. Lot 462 levels: nine bottom neck and three top shoulder; lightly wrinkled labels
"Cassis, cedar, spice box, minerals, and vanillin are all present, but this opaque black/purple Pauillac has yet to reveal secondary nuances given its youthfulness. It exhibits huge tannin, unreal levels of glycerin and concentration, and spectacular sweetness and opulence. Nevertheless, it demands another decade of cellaring, and should age effortlessly for another seven or eight decades." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, #129 (June 2000)
