Description

Château Haut Brion Blanc 1983
Pessac-Léognan (Graves)
u. 2x3cm, 1 slightly scuffed label, bin-soiled labels, 4 of which peeling, slightly scuffed capsules, 3 of which slightly corroded, excellent color and clarity

In 2012, a lovely 'petrol' nose that I often associate with mature HBB, with a touch of gentians. Lanolin lime taste, so rich and fat. The volume of a great Montrachet but, of course, a totally different taste. Lemony finish - I guessed it was a decade younger. Next day, with prawns and a touch of chilli - perfect.
