Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1961
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé
Levels: two 3.5cm and two 4cm
"As always, a totally different style, different taste, from it Médoc peers. But like them, an unmistakable depth of colour, just as the '45s had. A singed, tobacco and tea-leaves scent, harmonious - no harsh edges - confident, elegant and superb in its own slightly idiosyncratic way. An elegant, silky texture, as opposed to the more rustic, vigorous La Mission. Never very dry, it now has a pleasing sweetness, perfectly assimilated tannins and acidity, balance and length. Beautiful." GVWB
