Description

Château Haut Brion 1959

Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classé

u.1x3cm, 1x3.5cm, 1x4cm, 1x5.5cm, 2x6.5cm, bin-soiled and damp-stained labels, 1 wrinkled and torn label askew, corroded capsules, 1 wrinkled capsule

In 2014, intense coffee beans on the nose. Huge, voluptuous guava and pomegranate flavours on the palate, so alluring and come-hither. Then follows a fascinating saline finish that makes it even more intriguing. A simply fabulous wine and what an amazing contrast with the 1961, which is majestic in quite a different way. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
