Château Mouton Rothschild--Vintage 1949
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Heavily creased and disfigured orignal capsule, clearly removed several times for inspection of cork branding. RC label. Level base of neck. In carton
Tasting Note: Unquestionably the finest '49. ...20 occasions and have from the start found it enchanting, rich and ripe yet with an indefinable delicacy, and a complete contrast to the unquestionably magnificent, lordly, '45. Perhaps its secret lies in the modest alcoholic content: 10.5 Most recently, a medium-deep autumnal colour; vivacious, fragrant, floral bouquet; rich yet with a lacy delicacy, and exquisite flavour. Last tasted November 2003 ****** (six stars) But drink before it starts to fade away. M.B.
