Château Haut Brion 1989
Pessac-Léognan 1er Crus Classé
(bin-soiled, lightly stained label)
“...The prodigious 1989 Haut-Brion is one of the greatest first-growths I have ever tasted. The wine exhibits an opaque ruby/purple color, as well as a sweet nose of jammy fruit, tobacco, spicy oak, minerals, and smoke. Fabulously concentrated, with huge levels of fruit, extract, and glycerin, this wine is nearly viscous because of its thickness and richness. Low acidity gives the wine even more appeal and adds to its precociousness. The wine has not budged in development since it was first bottled, although it has always provided thrilling drinking because of its voluptuous texture. It needs another 5-6 years of bottle age before it will begin to develop Haut-Brion's fabulous fragrance.” (100pts RP)
