ROBERT PARKER “Wow, this is an exceptional bottle of Mouton ’85, one that had been kept in perfect conditions, i.e. at the chateau until April ’08 and subsequently opened dining with my boss and his family at “The Square”. The nose is simple sublime, marked by soft, earthy red-berried fruits, hints of cigar box and graphite with a bewitching sense of delineation and natural grace that I have note noticed on previous bottles. The palate is medium-bodied, beautifully balanced and graceful and whilst never as ambitious as the following vintage Mouton, is content just to satiate the imbiber. Wonderful fresh, tobacco-led finish and superb length. It put a smile on my boss’s face – that is what wine should do. I have a feeling that unless another bottle is proffered at the chateau, this might be the best Mouton ’85 I will ever drink! Drink now-2020. Tasted June 2008.”

Key Features & Benefits
Crafted through meticulous hand-harvesting and traditional vinification techniques, the 1985 Chateau Mouton Rothschild signifies extraordinary attention to detail. Grapes are sourced exclusively from carefully maintained vineyards within the Medoc appellation, ensuring top-tier fruit integrity.
The wine’s complexity is amplified by a prolonged aging process in new French oak barrels, imparting layers of refined texture and depth that set it apart from its peers. For collectors, this vintage combines rarity and enduring quality, promising both an exquisite tasting experience and the potential for appreciation in value over time.
Heritage & Collectibility
Chateau Mouton Rothschild’s storied history, marked by over a century of winemaking excellence, lends unparalleled prestige to its 1985 vintage. Limited worldwide availability—due to the estate’s strict control over production volume—heightens desirability among seasoned connoisseurs and investors alike.
This vintage enjoys a high market demand as a symbol of Pauillac’s golden era, reinforced by consistently favorable critic ratings. As an asset, it represents a highly sought-after addition to luxury wine collections, offering both cultural heritage and robust investment potential.
Sensory Profile & Usage
The 1985 vintage greets the senses with a rich bouquet of blackcurrant, cedar, and subtle tobacco nuances, reflecting its noble provenance. On the palate, expect harmonious layers of dark fruit, spice, and well-integrated tannins that culminate in an exceptionally long, velvety finish.
To fully appreciate its complexity, serve slightly below room temperature at 16-18°C after decanting for at least one hour. Store in a controlled, humid cellar environment to preserve its integrity. Complement this exceptional Bordeaux with fine lamb dishes or aged hard cheeses to elevate your gourmet experience.
