The 1971 Mouton Rothschild label displays an earlier work, composed by pioneering abstract artist Vassily Kandinsky. "I was surprised by this showing given the vintage, yet the 1971 Château Mouton Rothschild showed impressively well, revealing a youthful deeper plum hue as well as terrific Mouton ripe fruits, chocolate, tobacco, and earth-driven aromas and flavors. Nicely textured, medium-bodied, and incredibly charming, with integrated tannins and acidity, it's not a blockbuster, but it’s a fully mature, delicious wine." (Jeb Dannik 12/2020).
