Comment(s): A limited number of these labels were printed exclusively for distribution to friends, suppliers, etc., and were not intended to be used on the bottle. Chateau Mouton Rothschild is a wine estate located in the village of Pauillac in the Medoc, 30 miles northwest of the city of Bordeaux, France. It produces one of the world's greatest clarets. In 1946 the vineyard began the tradition of having each year's label designed by one of the world's great artists or sculptors of the day (Picasso, Chagall, Miro, etc.). For the 1975 vintage label, Warhol juxtaposes two different images of Baron Philippe Rothschild. Image copyright © Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York.
