Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1989 Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1989 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classe Lot 5106: u. 2bn, 1vts, 1 sign of seepage, 3 slightly scuffed capsules Lot 5110: Slightly glue stained label, owc has damaged lid Lot 5111: Damp stained and nicked label, slightly corroded capsule This is a very great Mouton, with the Merlot picked from 6th September and the Cabernet between 16th and 25th September, the earliest vintage at Mouton. Lovely spicy nose, like a gluhwein made of Cabernet Sauvignon. Concentrated, exotic and very chocolatey. One of the best, and most seductive 1989s in Bordeaux, with depth and a long finish. At home, in 2010, it was so beautiful, spicy and deep. SS. See illustration Lot 5107 1 imperial - 6 liter (owc) Lot 5108 1 imperial - 6 liter (owc) Lot 5109 1 imperial - 6 liter (owc) Lot 5110 1 imperial - 6 liter (owc) Lot 5111 1 imperial - 6 liter (owc) per lot: HKD 28000-34000 per lot: USD 3500-4500 Mouton, as it is affectionately known by all its devotees, is the most opulent and exuberant of all the Firsts, a reflection of the two huge personalities that have headed the Chateau since 1920, Baron Philippe and then Baroness Philippine de Rothschild. The great cassis depths of this wine seduce everyone who appreciates the finest Bordeaux. It is a gloriously forceful, flamboyant wine, voluptuous and powerful. Philippe Dhalluin, Mouton's talented Technical Director, has been at the Chateau since the harvest of 2003 and the stunning beauty of the wines has been further strengthened by meticulous attention to detail in vineyard and cellar. Many of my own greatest wine drinking experiences revolve around Mouton throughout this century and the last. Magnificent Mouton is a sensory photo on the mind that stays with one for life. SS. Quantity: 1
