Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1986
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Lot 143 levels top-shoulder or better. In "HKDNP" import stamped original wooden cases
"Deserving its reputation as outstandingly the best '86. Certainly a spectacular wine from my first encounter in 1989: vivid purple; intense varietal fragrance; packed tight with fruit. Of my most recent notes: impressive bottles at the Mouton dinner at Brook's in 1994. Nose peppery at first, then it sprang to life; on the palate the sweetness of ripe grapes and alcohol. Full-bodied, full flavoured, fabulous fruit, very dry finish. Deep but no longer opaque; ripe Cabernet scents; 'deep, rich, tannic, long life' (Mouton event in 1998). Two very recent notes: still immature; crisp fruit, taut, bricky; full-bodied, slightly raw but spicy, rich, chewy. Good length, hard tannins. Nowhere near ready. Last tasted Nov 2005. Hopefully *(****) 2010" M.B.
