Chateau Mouton Rothschild
Much of Mouton’s success is due to the late Baron Philippe de Rothschild, who assumed control in 1922. He was a dynamic figure who revolutionised much of the running of the estate. The first to introduce château-bottling, as early as 1924, he instigated the practice after the Second World War of employing a different artist each year to design the label. His greatest achievement was to have Mouton upgraded to 1st Growth Status in 1973, the only change ever to be made to the 1855 Classification.
The vineyard, comprising 75 hectares of mainly gravel-based soils, is planted with 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, 8% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot. Grapes are hand-picked, and the juice is fermented in barrel - not in vat. After fermentation the wine is aged in new oak for 22 months before bottling.
In style the wines have immense appeal, with exotic, powerful aromas of cassis, minerals, tobacco leaf and graphite, backed by an opulence on the palate and impressive length on the finish. Chateau Mouton Rothschild has often produced the “wine of the vintage”.

Chateau Mouton Rothschild, 2001
Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classe
"Lifted blackberry, autumn leaf, cedar and a touch of fresh tobacco, the mintiness enhanced by continued aeration. The palate is very tight and slightly pinched at the moment, the tannins a little harder and less fine than Lafite, the finish slightly chalky and foursquare in texture. Personally, I prefer the 2002 to the previous year, but it is still a decent, mid-weight Pauillac that would show better with cuisine. Drink 2013-2025. Tasted November 2010." Neil Martin Wine Journal

Chateau Mouton Rothschild, 1994
Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classe
*** 91 Points - Robert Parker ***
The 1994 appears to be the finest Mouton-Rothschild made following the 1986 and before the 1995's conception. The wine exhibits a dense, saturated purple color, followed by a classic Mouton nose of sweet black fruits intermingled with smoke, pain grillee, spice, and cedar. Medium to full-bodied, with outstanding concentration, a layered feel, plenty of tannin, and rich, concentrated fruit, this wine is similar to the fine 1988. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2025. By the way, the Dutch artist, Appel, has created a gorgeous label for the 1994. Although Mouton-Rothschild can be among the most inconsistent first-growths, …

Chateau Mouton Rothschild, 1993
Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classe
The 1993 Château Mouton Rothschild is a vintage with elegance and refinement, though it faced some challenges due to a cooler and wetter growing season. This First Growth Pauillac is known for its meticulous craftsmanship, and the 1993 vintage reflects the estate’s dedication to quality even in less-than-ideal conditions.
This vintage has a medium garnet color with inviting aromas of red currants, blackberries, and cassis, layered with hints of cedar, tobacco, and subtle spice. On the palate, it presents a refined structure with fine-grained tannins, medium body, and a balanced acidity that offers freshness. …

Chateau Mouton Rothschild, 1977
Pauillac, 1st Growth Classification
High shoulder
At the invitation of Baron Philippe de Rothschild, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother spent three days at Mouton on the occasion of her official visit to Bordeaux in April 1977.
To commemorate the visit, and with her permission, Baron Philippe dedicated the 1977 Mouton Rothschild label to her as a personal tribute.
Despite the vintage this wine still has a majestic color and nose given its age. As with most Bordeaux from 1977, this is a tad past its prime but you can tell this was a wine of elegance. Very interesting flavors of earth, a little leather, and berries. a little short lived on the palate but very interesting. …

Chateau Mouton Rothschild, 1976
Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classe (High-shoulder)
Mahogany core with deep brick rim. The nose is actually better than I anticipated with some dusty black fruits, cedar a touch of game, but it certainly lacks vigour and cohesion. The palate is a little tawdry, slightly hollow with an cooked character that jars against some obvious green berries that found themselves fermenting. Linear towards the dry finish, moderate length.

Chateau Mouton Rothschild, 1969
Pauillac, 1er Grand Cru classe
High Shoulder
Lovely colour, mature but lively appearance; clean nose, lovely vinous warmth, cassis and cedar and mint, classic Pauillac; lovely and lively palate, cassis flavours, complete for a 1969, lively acidity in check; clean and dry finish, good length. Much better than the bottle from the same cellar tasted ten years ago. Rating applies to the first 15 minutes after opening, loses its definition very quickly after that.

Chateau Mouton Rothschild, 1956
Pauillac, 1er Grand Cru classe
Slightly bin soiled label / High Shoulder
The 1956 Château Mouton Rothschild is more of a collector's item due to its rarity and age rather than its inherent quality as a wine. It represents a piece of Bordeaux history, particularly because of the challenges of the vintage. While it may not offer the power and complexity of better Mouton Rothschild vintages, it can still provide an intriguing glimpse into the past of one of the world's most famous wine estates.
The 1956 vintage in Bordeaux was challenging due to a severe frost that devastated many vineyards in the region. This frost significantly reduced yields, particularly affecting some of the vines at Mouton Rothschild. …

Chateau Mouton Rothschild, 1981
Paulliac 1er Cru Grand Classe
Top shoulder level
Arman label. From the good 1981 vintage, this lovely red wine has a spicy bouquet and a crisp fruity flavour with a long smooth finish.
Château Mouton-Rothschild’s exceptionally fine wine comes from the best vines on the ‘Plateau de Mouton’ that makes up 90 hectares of the property. In these vineyards, the roots push deep into gravelly soil. Since we’re in Pauillac, Cabernet Sauvignon is the grape that dominates the blend. Depending on the vintage, this can be up to 80%, and is completed by Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The grapes are picked by hand and, once destemmed, are put into vats. …
