Château Mouton-Rothschild--Vintage 1986
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Good appearance. Levels into neck
Tasting Note: Developing predictably, so I will jump to the present decade. Six very consistent notes. Most recently: deep, black cherry, quite intense though showing maturity; 'very Mouton', exciting, dramatic, distinctive spicy, almost eucalyptus bouquet; sweet entry, good fruit, touch of citrus, good length, tannin. Glorious now but long life. Last tasted April 2006 ***** Now - 2025. M.B.
