Lot Details
Description
Château Haut Brion 1964
Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classé
u. 4cm, label slightly soiled and faded, slight sign of old seepage on top of capsule
Harvested before the rain - timing was all in this vintage. At 50 years old, there is a bouquet of its time that I can describe as 'damp cellars', bringing back a hoard of memories. The taste is all blackcurrant and richly redolent of mince pies, those dried fruit concoctions that the British eat at Christmas, spicy and rich. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
