Considering the vintages and the estate, Mouton's performances in 1989 and 1990 are puzzling. I have tasted these wines multiple times since my last reviews appeared in print. The 1990 is a hard, lean, austere, tannic style of Mouton that I predict will never shed enough tannin to attain complete harmony and balance. The wine exhibits a deep ruby color, less noticeable sweet oak than it possessed 2-3 years ago, hints of ripe blackcurrant fruit, and an attenuated, angular, tough style that is uncharacteristic of this chateau's winemaking, as well as the character of the 1990 vintage. This wine needs at least 10-15 years of cellaring, but don't expect a balanced Mouton when the tannin fades away - the wine is not that concentrated. In the context of a great vintage, Mouton's 1990 is a disappointment. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2020.

This is slightly vegetal now, with some berry and herbal character. Not very impressive. '89/'90 Bordeaux non-blind horizontal. Drink now. 25,000 cases made. JS

Château Mouton Rothschild
Tra i Premier Cru di Bordeaux, Château Mouton Rothschild è stata l'unica proprietà a ottenere questo riconoscimento dopo la famosa Classificazione del 1855. Nel 1973 il Barone Philippe de Rothschild si adoperò con successo per lo Château, ottenendo lo status di Premier Cru che oggi conosciamo. Mentre i vini continuano a distinguersi tra i Cru Classé, l'opulenza e l'accessibilità unite alle note ribes nero e ai tannini potenti sono rimasti fedeli allo stile di pregio dell'assemblaggio. Il Barone Philippe lo disse in modo perfetto: “Premier je suis. Second je fus. Mouton ne change”, che significa “Sono primo. Sono stato secondo. Mouton non cambia". Per molti anni la tenuta è stata gestita dalla figlia e appassionata d'arte, la baronessa Philippine, fino alla sua scomparsa nel 2014. Grazie a lei, artisti iconici come Andy Warhol, Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Keith Haring e Georges Braque hanno disegnato alcune etichette per diverse annate. Oltre al famoso vino di punta, il Mouton Rothschild, e alla seconda etichetta, Le Petit Mouton, bisogna citare l’allettante l'Aile d'Argent, bianco di pregio prodotto in quantità più contenute.
