Chateau Haut-Brion 1970 Chateau Haut-Brion 1970 Pessac-Leognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classe u. 2bn, 3vts, 3ts, 1 t/hs, soiled labels and bottles, 1 sign of seepage, good color and clarity Wonderful leather bouquet. Lovely soft, sweet, leather taste. Rich and yet fresh which is a mark of top Claret. So sweet and easy on the finish. Most impressive. This has really surprised me recently. Now so soft and ready. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Lot 9001 9 bts (cn) per lot: HKD 24000-32000 per lot: USD 3000-4000 My overriding impression of this stunning First Growth is that it is the silkiest, most perfumed, most fine-grained of all the legendary top chateaux of Bordeaux. Haut-Brion has an inner 'spirituality' to it, a haunting quality that lingers long on the senses. Its unique position on the edge of the city of Bordeaux gives it a micro-climate that fosters ripeness and generosity - there is a velvety warmth to the wine. The extra 'plus' to the property is the family ownership and its long-standing link with three generations of another family, the Delmas, on the managing side which has provided a totally beneficial continuity to the estate. Haut-Brion often blooms early among the First Growths but, unlike human beings, it continues to grow more beautiful in middle age and retains the bone structure and elegance of a very distinguished old age!
