Note di degustazione
The 1962 Mouton-Rothschild is a vintage I have not encountered for quite some time. This bottle is a convincing follow-up to the monumental 1961. It begins a little muted on the nose, with notes of black fruit laced with cigar smoke and tobacco leaf, showing perhaps just a hint of VA. It’s compelling nonetheless. The palate is quite sweet on the entry—quite fleshy and sensual, with lovely balance. Dare I say I might pin it down as a Right Bank if tasted blind? There is so much energy in situ. This closes quite edgy on the marmalade-tinged finish. Wonderful.

In earlier editions of this book I complained about bottle variation, but three tastings over the last several years from bottles that had been perfectly stored revealed a splendid wine. The 1962 is extremely fragrant, with a dark garnet color revealing lightening at the edge. A sweet nose of jammy black fruits, cedar, and smoke is followed by a velvety-textured, medium to full-bodied wine with no hard edges. It is a compellingly rich, opulent Mouton that appears to have gained character and complexity with age. Anticipated maturity: Now-2008. Last tasted 10/97
