Written Notes

This bottle came along when I bought a lot of Moutons from different off-vintages like 1951, 1954, 1956, 1960 and 1965 just for the novelty of it. Very good condition, top-shoulder and promising vital colour. Not a bad nose for a wine of over fifty years and off-vintage - sound, aromatic and over-mature, but on the palate soft and light with the fruit completely dried up. Not the most exhilarating finish either, but still a drinkable wine.

Another vintage of Mouton I’ll probably never taste again is the 1954 Mouton Rothschild. This also had the coffee thing going on, full of hay and the blacker side of fruits. The palate was a bit mature, possessing Madeira flavors but never losing sight of its coffee (84).
