CHATEAU HAUT BRION 1998 |

Château Haut Brion 1998 Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru ClasséLevels into the neck, slightly cellar soiled and scuffed labelsThis just goes from strength to strength, combining huge Havana fruit, spiciness and meaty minerality. In 2014, it was stunning, smoky heather all through, with lovely freshness and seamless balance which promises very elegant, flavoury longevity. The breed of the wine is, as usual, a constant.
