CHATEAU HAUT BRION 2005 |

Château Haut Brion 2005 Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru ClasséA dry year in Bordeaux and immensely impressive right from the start. In 2014, marvellous, inky violets on the nose. And real 'inkiness' on the palate. Like Fortuny silk on the texture, a signature Haut Brion characteristic. Great vivacity on the finish, a part of the fresh acidity of the year. Will go the distance. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 10012 hbs (owc)Estimates are per lot
