Lot 172 Details
CHÂTEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD 2006 (OWC)

Pauillac. 1er Cru Classé

It remains one of the standouts of the growing season and actually replicates previous showings just the week earlier and in January. As expected, the nose has quite brilliant delineation with blackberry, graphite, here an almost cold slate-like scent. The palate is harmonious with the carefully judged acidity, fine-grain tannin and immense detail on the finish. Recent bottles suggest that it may close up for several years, in which case, either enjoy this in the next few months or cellar this for a few years and receive vinous dividends down the line. Drink: 2023-2055 Tasted May 2016. WA 96
