1995 Chateau Mouton Rothschild – First Growth Pauillac Masterpiece

The 1995 Chateau Mouton Rothschild is an exceptional vintage from one of Bordeaux’s most illustrious First Growth estates. Located in Pauillac, Mouton Rothschild is celebrated not only for its consistent excellence but also for its tradition of commissioning renowned artists for its labels. The 1995 vintage reflects the estate’s grandeur and long-lived style, standing as one of the finest Left Bank wines of the decade.

Tasting Notes

The bouquet reveals layered aromas of blackcurrant, cedarwood, and graphite, accented by hints of smoke, truffle, and espresso. On the palate, it is powerful and structured, with concentrated flavors of blackberry, cassis, and tobacco leaf. The tannins are firm yet refined, giving the wine immense depth and a finish that persists for over a minute.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

The 1995 blend is composed primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The grapes were harvested from deep gravel soils that define Pauillac’s terroir. Following fermentation, the wine was matured in 100% new French oak barrels for up to 22 months, enhancing both complexity and longevity.

Investment & Collectibility

The 1995 Mouton Rothschild is a highly collectible wine, combining critical acclaim with historical significance. As with all Mouton vintages, the bottle features an original commissioned label, adding artistic and cultural value. With nearly three decades of bottle age, this vintage is entering an extraordinary drinking window while retaining long-term cellar potential. Perfect for your collection.

Vintage Specifics & Accolades

The 1995 Bordeaux vintage was defined by ideal growing conditions, yielding structured, Cabernet-driven wines with the capacity to age for decades. Mouton Rothschild was among the vintage’s top performers.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

(Rating 94+) 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. Reviewed by William Kelley, Issue date: Febuary 2022. Drinking window: 2020-2055.

Vinous

(72% cabernet sauvignon, 19% merlot and 9% cabernet franc; pH 3.68; IPT 64; 12.4% alcohol; 88% new oak; 95% selection for the grand vin): Very dark, fully saturated ruby to the rim. Deep, brooding, rich aromas of blackberry, violet, milk chocolate, black pepper, cedar and incense; sexy and captivating. Bright and focused on entry, then rich, very smooth and suave, with highly concentrated flavors of red berries, dark plum, cedar and graphite. The extremely long, juicy finish features lively acids, great balance and persistent notes of underbrush and minerals. The mounting tannins coat the palate dry and are still years away from resolving fully. Harvested from September 12 through 27, which suggests that the merlot was probably very ripe. According to Tourbier, "We included a bit more merlot than usual because we felt the cabernet sauvignon had particularly tough tannins in 1995 and we didn't want to risk making too tough or structured a wine. So we used the merlot to soften it up a bit." The estate was so happy with the quality of the wine (and the rather high 95% selection for the grand vin speaks volumes), said Tourbier, that they only made 15 barriques of the second wine Petit Mouton, which was launched with the 1993 vintage. A huge volume year, 1995 was characterized by very fine weather through most of the growth cycle but was marred by September rains. Reviewed by Ian D'Agata, Issue date: August 2011.
