Lot Details
Description
Château Haut Brion 1989
Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classé
Excellent levels, labels slightly faded, 8 slightly wrinkled, 5 slightly soiled, Berry Bros slip labels, repacked from owc
Every single plot was green harvested to produce this density and they even chaptalized the wine! In 2014, a great black olive, 'tapenade' nose. On the palate, there is a touch of both vanillin and the sea, with sandalwood elements. The volume is impressive, with concentration all through. You can almost eat this. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
