The ugly duckling

1971 Château Mouton Rothschild;
(Magnum) Ruby, garnet rim, floral and red berries, elegant nose, refined, leather, cigars. Elegant tannins, if a bit lean, nice acidity, matches the body, tannins almost gone, bell peppers, good length. 89

People around the table preferred the heavier Barolo's, so I was left to enjoy this poor duckling by myself and finished half the bottle. I enjoyed it, even if on the lean side, it showed of all it had in a balanced way. Quite a nice drink by itself, but it's to fragile for any food.
