Description

The 1989 Mouton-Rothschild is the superior wine, but in no sense is this a compelling wine if compared with the Moutons produced in 1995, 1986, and 1982. The 1989 displays a dark ruby color that is already beginning to reveal significant lightening at the end. The bouquet is surprisingly evolved, offering up scents of cedar, sweet black fruits, lead pencil, and toasty oak. This elegant, medium-bodied, restrained wine is beautifully made, stylish, and not dissimilar to the 1985. It is an excellent to outstanding Mouton that should be close to full maturity in 4-5 years; it will drink well for 15-20. Last tasted, 11/96. Drink 2002-2017 90/100 Robert Parker

Tasted by sgullberg on 10/11/2011 & rated 96 points: What an elegant and lovely Mouton! Tobacco, walnut, chocolate, roasted coffee, typical fruit of cassis, exotic spices. Even a bit of blueberry in the mouth. Ginger. Absolutely gorgeous chewy tannins. Not a power house but so elegant and Mouton like. A top wine!
Tasted by wallstreet on 10/10/2011 & rated 96 points: a stunningly youthful wine with plenty of life ahead. Give it some decent air and it will open up and reward greatly. Typical Mouton, what can I say. Not quite the 82, but still very very good.
Tasted by Rani on 7/19/2011 & rated 95 points: What a classic. Liquid blueberry jam with lamb fat drippings. Silky mouth feel, powdery tannins, long.
Tasted by DSaeedi on 5/16/2011 & rated 96 points: Decanted 1 1/2 hours. Nose holds currant, dark cherry and deep incense and perfume. Violet. Toastiness. Some cedar. Exotic spices. Fennel. Aromas continually fire out of the glass. Such a complex, exotic nose. Finish lasts for over a minute. Gorgeous, haunting wine of incredible complexity.
