CHÂTEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD 1982

Wine 1982 1er Cru Classé  Bordeaux Pauillac

To drink between 1995 and 2055

John Huston, a talented painter, created the label for Château Mouton Rothschild. A light and airy watercolour that highlights the ram, one of the symbols of the Château, the sun and the vineyards. His dedication to Baron Philippe de Rothschild: « In my homage to my dearest friend, Baron Philippe, for his sixtieth harvest at Mouton », bears witness to his friendship for a man, and his attachment to a place whose magic had captivated him.
Château Mouton Rothschild 1982 reveals aromas of gingerbread, menthol and very ripe fruits, along with hints of cinnamon. It is a powerful, full, rounded, seductive and charming wine. This premier cru classé is composed of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc and 7% Merlot.

Really knockout – not over the top and overblown but there is just so much packed in here and it has such a dramatic, nay exotic, impact! Deep-flavoured, smoky-rich, wonderfully opulent and spicy. After more than an hour the fruit started to fade just a little but this is really stupendous.

Mouton Rothschild 1982 is drinking brilliantly today, soaring from the glass with aromas of cassis, dark berry fruit, charcoal, pencil shavings, espresso roast and loamy soil. Full-bodied, ample and enveloping, it's a layered, sumptuous wine that's remarkably seamless and complete, with impressive concentration, ripe but lively acids and fine, melting tannins. Long and resonant, this is a great wine that can keep company with the likes of Mouton's 1961, 1959 and 1955.

Texturally, this opulent, showy, supple, lush wine, which manages to harness an incredible depth of fruit feels just great as it rests on your palate. The finish crosses the sixty-second mark with ease. I suspect well-stored bottles will be even better with another 5 years or so and should remain at their extraordinary level for at least another 2 - 3 decades after that.

Not quite at the top level, but close, 1982 Mouton Rothschild is one of those thrill-a-sip wines you remember long after the wine has left your glass. There's an opulence and richness that's hard to fathom. Lushly Pauillac in character with accents of mint, Cuban cigars, Asian spices and perfectly ripe currants and blackberries. Long and seductive, this is a truly special wine. Well-stored examples can age for a decade or two easily. Though, why wait? Drink from 2026–2042.

Dark ruby garnet, almost black core, delicate watery rim. On the nose, wonderful blackberry compote, floral hints, spicy, fine cassis, a touch of nougat, typical Florentine touch. On the palate, perfectly balanced, elegant and extract-sweet, shows a firm, robust tannic core, mineral-saline, very good length, some velour, nougat and blackberries on the finish, a great wine with perfect finish, nougat on the aftertaste.

Glorious aromas. Dark ruby red. Wonderful perfumes of flowers, berry and lilac. Full-bodied, with silky tannins and a long and pretty finish. Balanced. Class in a glass.

This Mouton wasn't just singing from the bottle, it was joyfully dancing at the same time. Expressive, exuberant and delicious - a wine that is at its ultimate peak drinking window now. A joy to taste and enjoy - it is hard not to smile when drinking this wine.

Château Mouton Rothschild

Château Mouton Rothschild is one of the most iconic wine estates in the world. Located in the Pauillac appellation, it is the only growth in the official 1855 Bordeaux classification to have been elevated to the rank of Premier Cru Classé in 1973, having initially been classified as a Second Growth.

Acquired in 1853 by Nathaniel de Rothschild, the estate then known as Brane-Mouton became Château Mouton Rothschild and entered into legend under the guidance of Baron Philippe de Rothschild. A visionary, he profoundly modernised the vineyard, developed the cellars and imposed absolute quality standards, making Mouton one of the greatest wines of Bordeaux. His motto illustrates this unique ascent: "First I am, second I was, Mouton does not change".

The distinctiveness of Mouton Rothschild is also expressed through its artistic labels, illustrated each year by great contemporary artists, reinforcing its cultural and heritage aura. This pursuit of excellence is also reflected in the other properties of the Rothschild family, notably Château Clerc Milon and Château d'Armailhac.

Among the most iconic vintages of Château Mouton Rothschild are:

Château Mouton Rothschild 1945, Château Mouton Rothschild 1946, Château Mouton Rothschild 1947, Château Mouton Rothschild 1982, Château Mouton Rothschild 1986, Château Mouton Rothschild 1989, Château Mouton Rothschild 1993, Château Mouton Rothschild 1995, Château Mouton Rothschild 1996, Château Mouton Rothschild 2000, Château Mouton Rothschild 2005
