Tasted blind as a vintage comparison at the Valandraud vertical, the 1999 Mouton-Rothschild is a "useful," perhaps over-looked vintage from the First Growth estate. It has a clean and precise bouquet - you could almost describe this as dainty, which I mean in a positive sense. The fruit is beautifully delineated, almost pastille-like with subtle floral scents emerging with time. The palate is fresh on the entry with supple red berries pierced by a fine line of acidity. No, it is not complex and it has lost a little substance in recent years, yet it is well balanced with sufficient depth and body on the tobacco and cedar-tinged finish. If you can put its status aside, it boils down to nothing more than a well-made, easygoing and refined Pauillac to drink now and over the next decade. Tasted December 2016.

此款 1999 年份的 Mouton Rothschild 精致漂亮，與 1962 年和 1985 年的同款酒不盡相同。其酒液呈深紅寶石/紫色，帶有雪松樹木、醋栗利口酒，煙熏、咖啡和干藥草馥郁的香氣，它果香濃郁，甜潤豐郁，酒體豐滿，層次復雜，口感柔滑豐滿，風味持久，余味中的單寧顯示其香味可以保存 4 至 5 年。這是一款層次復雜，經典的 Mouton 酒。預期成熟時間：2005 年至 2030 年。

Delivers sweet tobacco and plum aromas, with a lovely richness. Full-bodied, featuring lots of cedar, tobacco, chocolate and berry character. Long and silky in the palate. There is no sense in waiting; this is so delicious now.—'89/'99 Bordeaux blind retrospective (2009). Drink now. 20,165 cases made. -JS
