Tasting Notes

Tasting from 31.12.2018: Peter Moser

Medium creme garnet, ochre reflections, broad, brightening to the rim. On the nose fine nuances of pickled dark cherries, terroir-typical hints of cassis and mint, fine ethereal notes, DELICATE hints of candied orange zest and nougat, expressive bouquet. On the palate, elegant tertiary notes, perfectly integrated tannins, pleasant acidity, mineral and persistent, a grown-up great red wine, a triumphant Mouton, which can still exist in the single bottle.

Ripe dark berries, a hint of caramel, hints of mint, eucalyptus and cassis, in the background some plums, mineral and multi-faceted. Fruity and balanced on the palate, finely integrated tannins.

Medium ruby, youthful colour, discreetly undercoated, broad brightening on the rim. The nose is full-bodied, creamy, with the icing on the cake of a great wine, hints of mint, eucalyptus and cassis, in the background some dark berryish confit, mineral and multi-faceted. Sweet and balanced on the palate, finely integrated tannins, a flawless, timeless Mouton with impressive length, it is one of the best wines of this great vintage and presents its terroir in a classic manner. This wine definitely still has a lot of future. A perfect bottle, a wine cannot taste better after more than 50 years in the bottle. (100 PP).
