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, 1966
Pauillac 1st Growth Classification
Upper shoulder. Label bin soiled.
Robert Parker writes '... the dark garnet colour and classic sweet, spicy, tobacco, coffee, and black currant aromas are enticing. The wine still has powerful tannin in the finish, which contributes to the dry, austere character this example has always exhibited. One of the more intellectually-styled Moutons, the 1966 is a classic example of the vintage, as well as of the chateau's Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated style. Tasted 10/97 Bordeaux, 3rd Edition. Rating 90/100 (outstanding)
Château Mouton Rothschild, nestled in the Pauillac appellation of Bordeaux, France, is among the most esteemed wine estates globally, celebrated for its rich history and exceptional red wines. …

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, 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. …
