ORIGINAL WOODEN CASES OF TOP VINTAGE CLASSIFIED BORDEAUX
Property of a Southern California Gentleman
Recently removed by a Specialist from an exquisite underground, custom built, walk-in, home cellar. Perfect temperature and humidity maintained throughout ownership. 1980s and 1990s vintages purchased from reputable local merchants on futures release.
Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1961
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé
Levels: one 3.5cm, four 4cm, one 4.5cm and one 5cm, one capsule cut to reveal Château branded cork and one label nicked
"Only four more recent notes. Sweet, with perfectly assimilated tannins and acidity; a superb magnum: rich, complete, harmonious, good length and a very high mark at the Aschau blind tasting (1994) Most recently, a magnum, and easily the best wine at a very weird tasting in the Musée Baccarat, Paris. It could only have been Haut-Brion and despite showing some age, excellent. Last tasted May 2000 ***** but it will never be as great as the '45." MB, Vintage Wine
