CHÂTEAU HAUT-BRION 1995

Pessac-Léognan. 1er Cru Classé
u. 3 x 1 cm. 3 x scuffed labels.

Deep ruby/purple-colored wine with a tight but promising nose of burning wood embers intermixed with vanilla, spice box, earth, mineral, sweet cherry, black currant, plum-like fruit, medium to full body, a high level of ripe but sweet tannin, and a finish that goes on for a good 40-45 seconds.

Realised: $2,280
