Lot #117. Château Mouton Rothschild 1949

Description: Consists of 6 Magnums, 1.5L
Score: 94 RP.
...The bouquet offers copious amounts of sweet, ripe cassis fruit, herbs, spicy oak, and a touch of coffee and cinnamon. Medium-bodied, with moderate tannin still noticeable, this compact, dark garnet, opaquely-colored wine possesses superb concentration and a remarkably long finish... Wine Advocate # 95, Oct 1994
Notes: Two base neck, four very top shoulder, worn capsules, four lightly torn capsules, one cut prior to specialist inspection, corks reveal Chateau and vintage brand, very lightly scuffed and very lightly bin soiled labels, two signs of slight past seepage, recorked at the Chateau in 1983.
