Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1959 u: mid shoulder, nicked capsule, lightly bin soiled and nicked label "Astonishingly young and unevolved, with a black/purple color, the wine exhibits a youthful nose of cassis, minerals, and new oak. It is exceptionally powerful and super-extracted, with the fruit supported by high levels of tannin and some lusty quantities of alcohol. This mammoth, full-bodied Mouton-Rothschild should continue to evolve for another 20-30 years. It may well be a 100-year wine!" R. Parker for TWA, 100 pts. 01/98 1 demi bottle
