Château Haut-Brion 1999, 12 bottles per lot
Château Haut-Brion 1999
Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé
In original wooden case
Tasting note: Deep plum, currant, and mineral notes emerge from the concentrated, beautifully balanced, pure 1999 Haut Brion. It seems to be cut from the same mold as years such as 1979 and 1985. There is a hint of graphite in the abundant fruit. The wine is medium to full-bodied, nuanced, subtle, deep, and provocatively elegant. It is made in a style that only Haut Brion appears capable of achieving. The finish is extremely long, the tannins sweet, and the overall impression one of delicacy interwoven with power and ripeness. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2025. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 140, April 2002.
