Mouton Cadet Bordeaux Baron Philippe de Rothschild 1986
This 1986 Mouton Cadet is produced by Baron Philippe de Rothschild under the Appellation Bordeaux Contrôlée. The company was established in 1933 when Philippe de Rothschild initiated a modernization process that ultimately led to Château Mouton Rothschild being elevated to Premier Grand Cru Classé in 1973. This remains the only change ever made to the historic 1855 classification. The family's anchor properties are situated in Pauillac, where Mouton Rothschild, Château d'Armailhac, and Château Clerc Milon form one of the most cohesive family empires on the Left Bank. The Rothschild family has also been instrumental in bringing French wine expertise to the international stage, establishing Opus One in Napa Valley in 1979 and Almaviva in Chile in 1997.
The wine originates from Bordeaux, a legendary region in southwestern France that has been exporting wine since the Middle Ages. The overarching Bordeaux appellation covers the entire Gironde department, providing a foundation for the area's traditional wine production. The region features a maritime climate, heavily influenced and temperature-regulated by the Atlantic Ocean, the Gironde estuary, and the Garonne and Dordogne rivers. This geological diversity, spanning gravel, clay, limestone, and sand, supports the cultivation of classic varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. The 1986 vintage in this region is characterized as tight and classic, receiving a score of 89 points.
Bottled by Baron Philippe de Rothschild, this French wine is presented in a 75 cl format with an alcohol content of 12%.

Bordeaux on the Atlantic is the world's most famous wine region and has been exporting wine since the Middle Ages. The legendary 1855 classification still ranks the area's leading châteaux. On the left bank of the Gironde, Cabernet Sauvignon dominates on gravel soils, while the right bank is the domain of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The region is known for elegant, age-worthy blends of great finesse.
