Details
Château Mouton Rothschild--Vintage 1999
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Tasting note: Cabernet Sauvignon 78 Cabernet Franc 4 and Merlot 18 First tasted with Patrick Leon at the château, alongside the '98 - a similar colour, more fleshy fruit, ripe Cabernet and oak, less spicy. Very sweet, hovering between lissom and plump ripeness. Next, with Hervé Berland: deep, velvety; 'toasted' Cabernet aroma that opened up beautifully. 'Fleshy' noted again, dry finish, and charm (****) An attractive wine - say 2012-2030 M.B.
