There are subtle notes of marzipan

This brilliant wine should be at its peak between 2018 and 2045

This is already very promising

One of the handful of perfect wines of the vintage

Mouton Rothschild (High-Shoulder Fill)- 1978 (750ml) Barbera Wine Enthusiast - 95 pointsThe 1978 is a vegetal, cedary, coffee, and berry scented Mouton. It is pleasant, but lacks the concentration and depth expected of a first growth. The wine is medium bodied, with a slight greenness to its curranty, earthy flavors, and moderately astringent, bitter tannin in the finish. It is a pleasant wine that is unlikely to develop additional complexity or richness. Robert Parker 85 points
