Description
Château Haut Brion 1945
Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classé
u. h/ms, heavily bin-soiled, damp-stained, and torn label, heavily faded label obscuring vintage, scuffed, oxidized, and corroded capsule, short capsule reveals vintage branded cork
The utter scent and class remind me of 1961. Just takes one to another realm. So sweet and so healthy. Heathery and silky. Unmitigated nobility and breed and such delicacy for this powerful year. The sheer beauty of Haut Brion 1945 is revelatory. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
