1982 versus 1990 Bordeaux

When you receive an invitation to a comparative tasting of all Premier Crus from the two great vintages of 1982 and 1990, you drop everything and clear your diary. 1982 and 1990 represent the beginning and end of perhaps the greatest era in the history of Bordeaux. During these nine years there were only two vintages that could be seen as disappointments: 1984 and 1987. It could rightly be stated that the period fr...

The Story

Château Mouton Rothschild A Premier Cru Classé in 1973, Château Mouton Rothschild, owned by Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, consists of 205 acres of vines near Pauillac, in the Médoc, North West of the city of Bordeaux. This Premier Cru benefits from exceptionally good natural conditions, both in the quality of the soil, the position of its vines and their exposure to the sun. It is regarded today as one of the world's greatest wine.

Wine Information

Château Mouton Rothschild 1990
Climatic conditions:The vegetation cycle started early following a mild winter. Budbreak took place between 7 and 17 March depending on the variety. Changeable weather in the spring – cold weather in March and April followed by high temperatures in May – caused early but slow flowering. Mid-flowering was observed on 21 May for the Merlot and Cabernet Franc and on 26 May for the Cabernet Sauvignon. June and July ...

Vuosikerta 1990

Early, uniform flowering, a hot but unspectacular summer and an exceptionally hot period at the end of August 1990 and the first half of September. It was this heat that allowed the record harvest not only to fully ripen, but also to concentrate the fruit. Harvesting began on September 14 and was completed before the start of heavy rains on October 2. Another reason for the success of the vintage was that most châteaux had invested in their ce...

A moderately rich looking, purple wine with no real sign of age around the rim. Really strong nose with blackcurrant, coffee and spice aromas. Firm, structured body, with not a lot of character. Seems quite tannic and dry on the palate, although it has decent acidity and some smoky, burnt fruit to match. Not as sweet or as full as other First Growths of this vintage, but has plenty of mouth-feel. No great length. This Mouton may come around with time in the cellar - or it may fall apart. Good luck!

Green has always been the first word to come to mind when it comes to the 1990 Mouton Rothschild, and this was no exception. It wasn’t a bad wine, and it was more balanced than the 1989, as well as fleshier. Bryan found it ‘fresh and succulent but less complex’ than the ’89. Many preferred the open nature of the 1990 (90).

Ruby, garnet rim. Dried fruits, anise, spices, nuanced, scented and detailed nose. Layered, stunning nose. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, cassis, dark fruits, anise, spices, liquorice, intense, fruit driven, long finish. Superb and quite youthful expression. 6 hours of air. 96

This one really turned on the charm and its was only when tasting the 1989 immediately afterwards that its very slight shortcomings (a certain blowsiness) were exposed. Glowing ruby with a foxy rim. Some brunt notes on the nose with great richness – very obviously a hot vintage. Rich, rich, rich. Blackcurrant fruit gum character. Much bigger and bolder than the 2000, for instance. Already smooth, welcoming and appetising. Much more refreshing on the palate than the nose. Quite a tingle on the finish. Some very fine tannins in retreat and definite acidity. A bit skinnier ultimately than the 1989 and slightly powdery on the finish.

The 1990 Mouton-Rothschild has always been a rather disappointing First Growth, and despite the perfect provenance of this ex-château bottle, its juxtaposition against the 1996 does it no favors. It has an earthy, loose-knit, tobacco-stained bouquet that never clicks out of second gear. The palate is similar, reasonably well balanced but lacking cohesion and, in particular, missing weight on the midpalate. It is a 1990 that struggles with expectation and falls short. Tasted from an ex-château jeroboam at the Palace of Versailles charity dinner.

1990 Château Mouton-Rothschild – was having not the first time in my life but the first time it was a wine in perfect condition, two or three previous times (in different places and times) the wine was far over it’s prime, and I started to think it was about wine itself, not just particular bottles.

Garnet red colour. The nose is rather restrained, hints of maturation aroma, discreet toasted aroma and restrained fruit, eg blackcurrants and candied fruits. On the palate distinct acidiy, mild tannins and rather soft finish. A quite pleasant character in a lighter style.

1990 Chateau Mouton-Rothschild, Bordeaux, France (Gothenburg, Sweden, Okt 2012) D1,5h, G1h Open but not entirely pleasant nose with lots of sweet dark fruit but with disturbing green notes and hints of burned rubber. Even a touch of brett. Didn’t get better with air. Displays both super young fruit and note that would suggest early maturity. Better on the palate with big bodied dark fruit attack and spicy components such as, black pepper, licorice, leather and more developed notes of barnyard and brett. However the somewhat green acidity wins on the surpisingly short finish and leaves more a sour than fresh feeling. Tasted twice with consistant notes. Not sure how or if this will develop. Drink 2015-2025 88p.
