Mouton Rothschild 1955 OWC 6

The Mouton Rothschild 1955, presented in its original wooden case, stands as a testament to the craftsmanship of one of Bordeaux's premier estates. Nestled in the Pauillac region, this Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant blend embodies the richness of its terroir, characterised by gravelly soils that allow for excellent drainage and root development.

The vintage of 1955 is particularly significant, encapsulating a year marked by favourable climatic conditions, leading to a harvest of exceptional quality. This wine showcases a deep garnet hue, hinting at its age yet promising vitality. On the nose, complex aromas of cedar, blackberry, and hints of leather emerge, underpinned by subtle earthy notes typical of the region.

On the palate, the wine reveals a sumptuous texture, marrying ripe fruit with elegantly integrated tannins. Flavours of dark fruit, spice, and a trace of tobacco unfold, culminating in a long, harmonious finish—a hallmark of Mouton Rothschild’s craftsmanship. The Mouton Rothschild 1955 not only exemplifies the allure of fine Bordeaux but also offers a glimpse into the historic legacy of a winery that has continually set the standard for excellence.
