Château Haut-Brion, Blanc--Vintage 1996
Pessac (Graves), cru classé
"In a vintage that produced a lot of high acid, emaciated dry whites, Haut-Brion's 1996 is the wine of the vintage. It displays exceptional concentration, tangy acidity, and gorgeously layered flavors of buttery citrus-like fruit, olives, and smoke. This medium-bodied, concentrated wine is quite backward. It will need a considerable amount of bottle age to shed some of its structure. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2025. Last tasted 11/97" Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition (1998)
