Offered in original wooden case
Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1995
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
Tasting note: This wine has been brilliant on every occasion I have tasted it. More accessible and forward than the 1996, it possesses a saturated ruby/purple color, as well as a beautiful, knock-out set of aromatics, consisting of black fruits, vanillin, spice, and wood-fire smoke. Multidimensional and rich, with layers of ripe fruit, and beautifully integrated tannin and acidity, this medium to full-bodied wine is a graceful, seamless, exceptional Haut-Brion that should drink surprisingly well young. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2030. 96 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #115, February 1998
