Lot Details

Description

Château Haut Brion 1959 

Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classé

u. 1x5cm, 1x5.5cm, damp stained and bin soiled labels, 1 slightly torn label, 1 corroded capsule, signs of old seepage

In 2014, intense coffee beans on the nose. Huge, voluptuous guava and pomegranate flavours on the palate, so alluring and come-hither. Then follows a fascinating saline finish that makes it even more intriguing. A simply fabulous wine and what an amazing contrast with the 1961, which is majestic in quite a different way. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
