Written Notes

Excellent-looking bottle with the label in mint condition. Level top-shoulder, decanted just one hour before tasting. Very good, dark, deep and mature colour. Intense looking. A fabulous, decadent nose of blackberries, mint, earth and tobacco. Opened fully in 15 minutes. The palate was beautifully balanced with fresh acidity and, like all the great wines, got better and better in the glass. The tannins were smooth and spirited. A complex and elegant wine with multilayered fruits and a long, clean finish. Unquestionably a top class Mouton. An epochal wine in many ways!
