A consignor from Alberta whose interest in fine wine piqued in university after tasting a great bottle at an event. Shortly after earning his master’s degree, he began collecting in earnest, fueled by a year in London that allowed for frequent trips to France and a deeper appreciation of its remarkable terroir. Over the years, his collection grew, sourced through the ALB and numerous journeys to the renowned wine regions of France, Italy, Napa, Sonoma, and the Willamette Valley. Each bottle was stored in his climate-controlled cellar prior to auction.
The scores for 1995 Chateau Mouton Rothschild Pauillac - Decanter - 97, Wine Spectator - 96, Vinous - 95, The Wine Advocate - 95, James Suckling - 95, Jeannie Cho Lee (formerly Asian Palate) - 95. The rating for 1995 Chateau Mouton Rothschild Pauillac is 94+ points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - While the 1995 Mouton Rothschild has begun to soften somewhat in the last six or seven years, it remains remarkably youthful. Offering up a deep and primary bouquet of ripe cassis fruit and creamy new oak, it's medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, with a vibrant core of concentrated fruit, powdery tannins and a long, resonant finish. This is a pure, beautifully balanced Mouton that simply hasn't evolved very much, even as it closes in on its third decade. While I can attest that it can be drunk with great enjoyment today, real complexity has yet to emerge.
