Description

PROPERTY OF MS. SUSAN S. DILLON

Château Haut Brion 1961

Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classé



u. 4x4cm, 2x5cm, Scuffed and stained labels, 1 heavily stained label, 2 torn capsules, excellent color and clarity

This 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
