Château La Mission-Haut-Brion--Vintage 1959
Talence (Graves), cru classé
Levels: one bottom neck and one top shoulder; bin soiled label
"Most recently a superb bottle at La Réserve's tasting: deep, more intense than the Ch Haut Brion, tinged with cherry red; more more scented too, 'earthy', 'cheese rind', 'singed tobacco', 'pebbly', its crisp fruit opening up richly; more astringent than the Ch Haut brion, crispier fruit, more aggressive, with excellent tannin and acidity. Last tasted June 2000 ***** And will keep." MB, Vintage Wine
