Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1961
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé.
Levels of four bottles high-shoulder, one neck level
bottle with bin-soiled label; magnum with small stains on label
"A singed, tobacco and tea-leaves scent, harmonious - no harsh
edges - confident, elegant and superb in its own slightly
idiosyncratic way. Never very dry, it now has a pleasing sweetness,
perfectly assimilated tannins and acidity, balance and length.
Beautiful." JMB
8 bottles and 1 magnum per lot
