Lot 27 Details
CHÂTEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD 1986 (OWC)

Pauillac. 1er Cru Classé
scuffed label

Deep garnet-black colour. An incredible array of aromas on the nose: blackberry, black cherry, tobacco, espresso, leather, black olive and loam. The palate is absolutely seamless from first impression to finish, effortlessly building layers of complexity in the mouth and leading to a very long, earth and spice finish. I can’t see how this could possibly be improvement so have no alternative but concede perfection. Drink now to 2045+. WS 99 WA 100

1 bt.    per lot $1,200 - $1,400

Realised: $1,440
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
