Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1953
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé
Slightly creased château capsule. Bin-soiled and slightly creased label. Level base of neck. In carton
Tasting Note: Tasted in cask on my first visit to Bordeaux in 1955. Violet, searingly, mouth-puckeringly tannic. Hard to envisage a mature charmer though developed well from the mid-1960s through the 1980s. Superb bottles in 1996 and 2000. Very distinctive character: hot, earthy, delicious. Most recently: rich, autumnal colour; scent of old stables, iron, earthy, which just sat in the glass. Rich, characterful, but a touch of decay on the finish. Last noted Dec 2002. At best ***** Now tiring. M.B.
