Château Haut Brion 1959 Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classéu. 1x4.5cm, 1x5cm, 1x6cm, wine comes from 2 importers scuffed and cellar soiled labels, 2 labeled 'Selected for the Beverly Hilton', scuffed and corroded capsules with 1 sign of seepage, slightly raised corksIn 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 WA 933 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
