1985 Chateau Haut Brion 1985 1er Grand Cru Classe Pessac

Description

Scoring 94/100 Parker points, this incredible red wine from the outstanding 1985 vintage “This has always been one of the more seductive, savory, complex Haut-Brions of the eighties. My notes have always suggested that it is the quintessentially elegant, finesse-styled Haut-Brion. The color remains a deep ruby/purple with slight lightening at the edge. The knock-out nose of intense jammy black fruits, smoke, cedar, herbs, and new oak is followed by a generously concentrated, rich, gorgeously proportioned and layered Haut-Brion with no hard edges. Everything – alcohol, acidity, tannin – is beautifully integrated into the seamless personality of the 1985.” Drink now – 2020.
