Château Haut Brion 1eme Grand Cru Classes, Pessac-Leognan 2005
Product:ChâteauHautBrion2005
Tasting Notes:
Deep ruby-red, not opaque. Wonderfully rich, intense ripe, red-fruit aromas on the nose. Fabulous, rich, soft, voluptuous red-fruit on the palate has truffle notes. This has marvellous elegance, the fine structure is open rather than tight. The long silky finish lasts very well.
Pairing:
Beef and Venison
Wine at a glance
Wine Enthusiast98/100
A big, virile wine, dominated by dark and firm tannins. The structure comes from powerful black fruits, the wood only showing as dry edge to the tannins. It's firm, obviously destined for long aging, with initial blackberry fruits powering through the density. A stupendous wine that will last many decades.
