Château Mouton-Rothschild 1929
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Badly damaged and corroded capsule with top of cork showing. Badly bin-soiled label. Averys of Bristol slip-label. Level low-shoulder
Tasting note: Over 20 notes. Once the ‘star’ of the saleroom though always seemed on the brink, fleshy, often corrupt, yet always exciting. Most recently, a top-shoulder bottle; medium-deep, healthy glow; opened up richly in the glass; sweet, very flavoury, still exotic though showing its age, good length. Last tasted February 2004. Now, at best, **** M.B.
