1988 Chateau Haut Brion 1988 1er Grand Cru Classe Pessac

Scoring 92/100 Parker points, this incredible red wine from the good 1988 vintage "A more firmly structured Haut-Brion, built somewhat along the lines of the 1996, this dark garnet-colored wine is showing notes of licorice, underbrush, compost, truffles, dried herbs, creosote, and sweet black cherries and currants. Medium-bodied, rich, but still structured, this wine unfolds incrementally on the palate, showing superb density and a lot of complex Graves elements. It is just beginning to hit its plateau of full maturity." Drink now - 2025.
