Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1959
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé
Lot 398 levels: 5.0cm; re-corked at Château in 1985 with Nicolas label. Lot 399 levels: 3.5cm. Lot 400 levels: one 2.5cm, three 3.0cm, two 3.5cm, three 4.0cm, two 4.5cm and one 5.0cm
"Perfection at a tasting in 1995, a beautiful, fully mature, brown rimmed wine with bouquet surging out of the glass. Very sweet - with a distinctive earthy, tobacco-leaf taste, lunching at Langoa. Most recently, by a short head the best wine at a Haut Brion and La Mission tasting: a wonderful gradation of colour, showing age but sweet and mellow, with a lovely edge-of-honeycomb scent after an hour in the glassAll the component parts working in harmony. M.B.
