Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1995
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
Tasting Note: First noted in December 1997 at a pre-sale tasting in New York: deep, velvety; harmonious; very dry finish. Next in September 1998: nice texture and weight (13, elegant. 'Delicious flavour, great length' among other facets noted at the MW Haut-Brion tasting of '95s in November 1999, and, three months later, at yet another MW tasting, a vertical of Haut Brion. Very detailed notes made: deep, crisp ruby with maturing rim; somewhat cherry-like fruit developing richly over 30 minutes in the glass; attractive fruit, chewy, shapely, good dry finish (Monsieur Delmas observed that the '95 was softer, smoother and rounder than the '96, with fleshier, mellower tannins) M.B.
