Description

A bottle of 1961 Château Mouton Rothschild from Bordeaux's Pauillac appellation, featuring a label by artist César Baldaccini, known simply as César (1921-1998). The label makes use of present-day artefacts: paper clips, nuts and bolts.

Despite its market prices equalling that of Château Lafite Rothschild, Château Mouton Rothschild was excluded from the First Growth status under the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. Baron Philippe de Rothschild called this a 'monstrous injustice', and some believe the Château was excluded as it had recently been purchased by an Englishman, so was no longer under French ownership.

This is one of 76732.

Please note there is no ABV stated on the label.

Condition
