Lot 189 Details
CHÂTEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD 1995

Pauillac. 1er Cru Classé
u. 2 x vts. 2 x wrinkled labels.

A blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, and 19% Merlot, it reveals an opaque purple color, and reluctant aromas of cassis, truffles, coffee, licorice, and spice. In the mouth, the wine is "great stuff," with superb density, a full-bodied personality, rich mid-palate, and a layered, profound finish that lasts for 40+ seconds. There is outstanding purity and high tannin, but my instincts suggest this wine is lower in acidity and slightly fleshier than the brawnier, bigger 1996. Both are great efforts from Mouton-Rothschild. Drink to 2030. February 1998 WS 96 WA 95
