The red wine Château Mouton Rothschild, vintage 1961 from the winery Château Mouton Rothschild has been rated in 2011 with 96 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon from the region Pauillac in France.
Medium ruby in colour, already ochre underneath. On the nose, initial aromas of delicate medicinal/herbal spices, with air revealing fine cinnamon stick, fine dark berry fruit underpinned by tobacco nuances and subtle nougat. The palate has a juicy body, with a subtly animalistic core, lively and full of red berry fruit, with good fruit on the finish, a delicious wine with an almost Burgundian charm, a perfect single bottle. (2011/drink).
