Bottle Details

Château Mouton-Rothschild 1983 Pauillac Premier-Cru (1er-Cru) / 150th Anniversary

Classic Cabernet Sauvignon dominant, left-bank Bordeaux-blend; Matured in new French Oak barrels for 18-22 months.

The 2003 vintage marks the 150th anniversary of Mouton’s entry into the family to which it has since belonged without interruption for five generations.

Baroness Philippine de Rothschild has therefore decided to depart from tradition by devoting the entire label to Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild (1812-1870), her direct ancestor from the English branch of the family who acquired the Mouton estate on 11 May 1853.

Baron Nathaniel is depicted on the label in a period photograph. The background shows part of the deed of sale. This document, carefully preserved in the Mouton archives, marks the beginning of a long love story between the Rothschilds and the great wines of Bordeaux.

Originally known as Château Brane-Mouton and renamed to Château Mouton Rothschild in 1853, the estate was listed as only a 2nd-Growth in the famed 1855 Classification of Medoc seen by many as an injustice. Mouton was later elevated to 1st-Growth of the 1855 Classification of Medoc in 1973, the only change ever to be made to the 1855 Classification.

A blend of; a blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot.
