Mouton Rothschild  1959

The 1959 Château Mouton Rothschild is an undisputed titan of the wine world, universally recognized as one of the greatest, most profound Bordeaux vintages ever made. Frequently rated a perfect 100 points, this legendary release is a monumental "mammoth" of a wine that has aged for nearly seven decades with jaw-dropping vitality.

Critic tasting note: (1959 vintage) "The '59 Mouton is without doubt one of the best red wines that the estate has ever produced - but certainly the best since 1945 and up to 1986. If you are lucky enough to encounter this almost sixty-five-year-old youngster in perfect form, then you imagine yourself in ʺ7th Bordeaux heavenʺ. Carried by full-bodied, juicy tannins, full of fine and integrated fruit; a wine with volume and length that leaves you in awe. Fine acidity evokes red berryish nuances in the finish, a perfectly grown-up and superlative wine with certain ageing potential, probably for decades. (12/2023, drink - 2060)." - Falstaff
