1996 Château Mouton Rothschild

Community Tasting Note

95 Points

Saturday, August 1, 2015 - Reinterpreted Paris Tasting 'Best Bottle Circle' Style (Emmen, Switzerland): Garnet in color. Nose shows leather, barn and dark berries. Very smooth tannins, lots of power and very long finish. This is a classical Bordeaux beauty. Still on the young side but already amazing stuff. Wait 5-10 years or decant
