My brother tasting his 47 year old Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1970 on Boxing Day 2017 in Hale, UK.
He bought this wine in a mixed case from an auction house in Knutsford about 5 years ago. We have slowly worked our way though the lesser vintages and this is the last wine remaining.
As you can see, this is a legendary vintage wine, which improved considerably after opening. However it wouldn't justify the price.
PS he's got my Christmas present, his sandal socks on.
