I remember buying 3 bottles of this in 1985 after tasting at Dennis Overstreet. I had to steady my writing hand with my other hand as I had never paid $42.50 for a bottle of wine!

@Alan Weinberg scary that the sales tax today exceeds your cost of purchase in 1985

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1982

Was looking forward to this wine the most but sadly this bottle had seen better days. Very tertiary with mushroom and leather. Was still pleasant but suffered from the high expectation... — 6 months ago
