Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1955
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
Recorked at the château in 1997. Slightly bin-soiled and slightly damaged labels. Levels into neck
Tasting Note: A dark ruby-coloured 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, Oct 1994
