Château Mouton Rothschild 1953 (1 BT)

Château Mouton Rothschild 1953 

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

u. t/hs, scuffed and cellar soiled label and capsule

Label: Centenary Year

Such an ethereal scent, a real hallmark of this exquisite vintage.  Totally enchanting.  The epitome of perfect Pauillac.  Flawless.  Extraordinary fruit and unbelievably graceful.  So sweet and melting, it is sheer heaven.  This is Mouton at its most incandescent.  In magnum, at the Château, an incredible bouquet of brambles and undergrowth - pulchritude in the glass!  So amazing and fruity.  Juicy blackcurrants - this was the epoch when they were really in evidence at Mouton.  Divine, luscious, opulent essence.  Serena Sutcliffe, MW
