Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1955
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé
Levels: one upper, one upper/mid, one mid and one mid/lower shoulder; signs of seepage, bin soiled labels, one slightly torn label, one corroded capsule
"Tasted 4 times with consistent notes. A dark ruby-colored wine with noticeable amber/rust, the 1955 Haut-Brion offers a huge, fragrant bouquet of walnuts, tobacco, wet stones, and smoky, cassis-like fruit. Medium-bodied, with extraordinary elegance and sweetness, this rich, concentrated wine exhibits no hard edges. Remarkably youthful, as well as concentrated and impeccably well-balanced, it is capable of lasting for another 10-20 years." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #95 (October 1994)
