Description

In the blind tasting in December, this wine finally began to reveal some potential. It has been closed and frightfully tannic for the last decade. The wine exhibits a good dark ruby/garnet color, a sweet nose of cedar, chocolate, cassis, and spices, good ripe fruit and extraction, and a weighty, large-scaled, tannic finish. Although still unevolved, it is beginning to throw off its cloak of tannin and exhibit more complexity and balance. I remain concerned about how well the fruit will hold, but this wine will undoubtedly hit its plateau around the turn of the century. Putting it in the context of what is a largely disappointing range of Mouton-Rothchilds in the decade of the seventies, great bottles of the 1970 are superior to the 1975, but this is clearly the second-best Mouton of the decade. 91pts

Deep garnet. Initial nose of blue cheese, herbs and cigar box. Tannic and lacking some depth. I think the fruit will fade before the tannins mature. This is coarse and rustic for Mouton. Short length for a First Growth with a harsh austere pencil-lead finish. Tasted twice with consistent notes. Tasted July 2002. 85-87pts
