Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1986
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case. Excellent appearance. Levels: ten base of neck, one top-shoulder
Tasting note: reputed to be outstandingly the best '86. Certainly a spectacular wine, still immature; crisp fruit, taut, bricky; full-bodied, slightly raw but spicy, rich, chewy. Good length, hard tannins. Nowhere near ready. Last tasted Nov 2005. Hopefully *(****) 2010-? M.B.
