1989 Haut BrionColour : Red Producer : Haut Brion Country : France Region : Bordeaux Sub Region : Pessac Leognan Variety : Proprietary Blend Vintage : 1989 Capacity : 750 ml Standard Bottle Rating : RP100 Robert Parker Wine Advocate Tasting Note : This continues to be one of the immortal wines and one of the greatest young Bordeaux wines of the last half century. Consistently prodigious and almost a sure bet to top the scoring card of any blind tasting of this

produced by one of the Côte des Blancs’ most thoughtful and quality-focused small growers

Medium-bodied

his parallel Pinot Noir programme

dried violet and the characteristic dense clay mineral depth of the Pomerol plateau

The 2019’s natural elegance and the estate’s meticulous approach to managing the Suvereto clay-mineral soils’ natural character produced a Redigaffi whose combination of freshness and depth places it at a very high level in the wine’s recent history

this full-bodied effort has massive depth and richness

Will probably always be a bit painful to drink

Very long and subtle on the finish

2015 and 2014

This is a serious Rioja for the long run

those that produced smaller bunches

Tasting Note : This is incredible on the nose
