Description

Château Mouton Rothschild 1998
Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé
4 slightly bin-soiled labels, 1 damp-stained and torn label

Like many of its peers, the 1998 has filled out spectacularly...increased in stature, richness, and size. A blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, and 2% Cabernet Franc (57% of the production was utilized), it is an extremely powerful, super-concentrated wine offering notes of roasted espresso, creme de cassis, smoke, new saddle leather, graphite, and licorice. It is massive, with awesome concentration, mouth-searing tannin levels, and a saturated flavor profile that grips the mouth with considerable intensity.WA 96 - 04/01
