Château Laville Haut-Brion 2004 (6 BT)

Château Laville Haut-Brion 2004

Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Cru Classé

4 capsules very slightly scuffed by case dividers

83% Sémillon, 17% Sauvignon Blanc. In 2013, grapefruit, petrol, minerality and white truffles on the nose. Rich, citrus glycerol on the palate. Grapefruit zests plus smoke and bons bons anglais or 'boiled sweets' as the English call them. Reminds me of some of the greatest Hunter Valley Sémillons of the past! Finishes on oranges. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

83% 賽美容，17% 長相思。 2013年品嚐，帶柚子，汽油，礦物及白松露香氣。口感豐富，有檸檬，甘油的豐盈味道。還有柚子皮，煙燻及糖果槳。讓我想起澳洲獵人谷(Hunter Valley)最偉大的陳年賽美容！收結帶甜橙氣息。施

Provenance

A small part of a much larger collection, this has been assembled meticulously for over 20 years. Many were purchased from Sotheby’s, including single-owner sales such as “Direct from the Cellars of Paul Jaboulet Aine” in 2012; “Wines from the Cellar of The Fux Restaurant” in 2017 and “The Tran-scend-ent Sale” in 2019. Others were mainly purchased on release from reputable UK wine merchants. All wines were professionally stored in a professional temperature-controlled cellar before the sale.
