Just a special experience. The nose was powerful and dynamic evolving beautifully over 30 minutes. A smokey phase, a pine phase, and a strong floral phase. The palate was balanced and smooth. The fruit was dead but resembled fruit leather. Two bottles opened, one had grip left, the other didn't. #moutonrothschild #grandcruclassé #2ndgrowth #bordeaux #pauillac #1928 #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago

This! Let me learn you something: You're hit with smokey plum and deep purple grapes. Keeping this taste, the oak gradually comes through. This taste stays and doesn't fade after day 2. Love this wine! — 10 years ago

At first sip, it brought me back to colonial times. Sitting around a hearth with the founders of our great nation. Smokey, not too sweet, and well balanced. Also, Benjamin Franklin. — 10 years ago
