Château Mouton Rothschild 1995
Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé
2 levels just into neck, good appearance; 2 niveaux juste dans le cou, bel aspect
Label Artist: Antoni Tàpies
In 2014, a great bouquet of smoky boysenberries, with all that underlying Mouton cassis. Great, expressive, fresh red and black fruit on the palate. Very plummy and luscious. This is the perfect contrast in vintage style with 1996 - put them together for a really rewarding evening! Serena Sutcliffe, MW

Celebrating the life and tastes of an oenophile, this beautiful collection comes to auction from a single, purpose-built and temperature-controlled private cellar in the South of Europe. All the wines were directly purchased from one of the most prestigious, reputable and highly-respected merchants in Bordeaux. The Classic taste of the late owner is obvious, with an impressive depth of Cru Classé Bordeaux on offer from the 1990s to 2010s, with an extensive representation across First Growths to Fifth Growths, together with an outstanding representation of some of the greatest Crus recently produced in Saint-Emilion and Pomerol. Beyond Bordeaux, we glimpse more of the collector’s tastes with a small selection of Super Tuscans and iconic Californian gems. Great vintages are a gift from Mother Nature and this collection has assembled some of the best wines produced in Bordeaux for the past decade in tremendous quantities with a large variety of formats from half bottles to double magnums. This is a cellar to satisfy every wine lover from all over the world.
