In 1853 Nathaniel de Rothschild (1812-1870) purchased Château Brane Mouton in the Medoc district of Bordeaux and renamed it Château Mouton Rothschild. In the 1920s Philippe de Rothschild (1902-1988), great-grandson of Nathaniel, took on the management of Mouton and brought a new vigour to it with an imaginative style of innovation, introducing the tradition of wine labels painted by great artists. In 1973, it joined Château Lafite as a premier cru. From 1988 until her death in 2014, Baroness Philippine de Rothschild (1933-2014) presided over Château Mouton. This card features the design by Andy Warhol (1928-1987) the famous American pop artist, chosen for the 1975 wine label and features an image of the bust of Baron Phillippe.
