Parker's 1998 tasting: "In previous editions of this book, I complained about the variations between bottles, but three tastings in recent years from bottles that had been perfectly preserved have revealed a splendid wine. The 1962 is extremely fragrant, with a dark garnet color that lightens at the rim.

This is a rich, opulent Mouton that seems to have gained character and complexity with age."
