Description

Château Mouton Rothschild 2003

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Excellent level and appearance, packed in plain carton within owc; Excellent niveau et apparence, emballé dans un carton neutre à l'intérieur de owc


Label: 150th Anniversary

Cabernet Sauvignon 76%, Merlot 14%, Cabernet Franc 8%, Petit Verdot 2%. This was the last vintage of Patrick Léon, with Philippe Dhalluin coming in for the 'élevage'. In 2023, it has a very deep colour and a great nose of blackcurrants and liquorice, oozing First Growth stature. Total succulence and richness on the palate, so juicy, opulent and luscious. Stunning ripeness that is beautifully managed in this hot vintage, as freshness is maintained - the glories of Cabernet Sauvignon revelling in warmth. This wine has always been a stand-out, a true celebration of 150 years of Rothschild ownership. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

Provenance:


A rare Bordeaux collection centered on Château Mouton Rothschild, enriched by mature treasures including Petrus and Château d’Yquem. Recently removed from the underground cellar of a family house in Continental Europe, where all bottles have been stored since purchased for the most reputable European Wine Merchants. The crown jewels are four venerable vintages of Lafite—1914, 1934, 1942 and 1948— all authenticated by Sotheby’s specialists, offering collectors a rare glimpse into more than a century of the estate’s history.


Une rare collection de Bordeaux, articulée autour du prestigieux Château Mouton Rothschild et sublimée par des trésors parvenus à parfaite maturité, parmi lesquels figurent notamment Petrus et le Château d’Yquem. Récemment retirées de la cave souterraine d’une demeure familiale en Europe continentale, ces bouteilles ont été conservées, depuis leur acquisition auprès des plus illustres négociants en vins européens, dans des conditions optimales. Les joyaux de cette collection sont quatre millésimes vénérables de Lafite — 1914, 1934, 1942 et 1948 — authentifiés par les experts de Sotheby’s, offrant aux collectionneurs un rare aperçu de plus d’un siècle de l’histoire du Château.
