CHATEAU HAUT BRION 1961 |

Château Haut Brion 1961 Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classéu.1x4.5cm, bin-soiled label, sign of seepageThis was the year when some stainless steel vats were introduced at Haut Brion, the first in Bordeaux. In 2014, a devilishly deep, aromatic nose, with notes of gravel and lead pencil. Great cherry and bilberry flavours on the palate. This is a huge, chewy, almost edible wine, doing honour to this incredible vintage. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 1001 bt (cn)Estimates are per lot
