Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1991 Vintage: Simple Breakdown and Acquisition Guide

1991 was an extremely challenging year for the Médoc region of Bordeaux. However, it is precisely because of this that the Mouton Rothschild wines from this vintage are relatively rare in the market, making their collection and resale all the more unique. With years of experience in fine wine appraisal, Hong Kong Merchants has compiled professional data and evaluation criteria for the 1991 vintage.

Key Factors Determining Resale Value

When conducting on-site wine collection in Prince Edward district, Hong Kong Merchants' appraisers will provide precise quotations based on the following details. Understanding these details will help you obtain a more reasonable acquisition price:

• Fill Level: For a 1991 vintage wine, a fill level maintained at "Base Neck" or "Very High Shoulder" is considered excellent; a significantly lower fill level will greatly affect the wine resale price.

• Label Condition: A major selling point of Chateau Mouton Rothschild is its artistic labels. If the 1991 design by Madame Setsuko shows wear, moisture damage, mold, or tears, it will reduce its collector's value.

• Capsule: The capsule should be intact and not feel loose from being rotated. Signs of seepage around the lead seal will significantly deduct points.

• Proof of Origin: If accompanied by an original wooden case, invoice, or professional cellar storage certificate, its second-hand fine wine acquisition value will be higher.
