Château Mouton-Rothschild 1987
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case with original tissues. Bin-soiled labels. Levels: base of neck or better
Tasting note: This would appear to be a sure bet for the wine of the vintage. Certainly, it is the most complete and backward 1987, with at least 10-15 years of aging potential. The touching dedication from the late Baron Philippe de Rothschild's daughter on the label is almost worth the price of one bottle. Additionally, 1987 was the last vintage of the Baron, and thus will probably fetch a fortune in 40 or 50 years. This is one of the deepest and most opaque wines of the vintage, with a tight, yet promising bouquet of cedar and black currants. This wine exhibits surprising depth, medium to full body, and plenty of tannin in the finish. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate Bordeaux Book 3rd Edition, January 1998
