Haut-Brion 2006, 1st GCC Pessac-Léognan: plum, tobacco, cedar, silky tannins. Elegant and long.
Deep garnet-purple colored, bright, vivacious notes of crushed blackcurrants, juicy blackberries and redcurrant jelly with slowly emerging nuances of candied violets, stewed plums.
Deep purple-black in color, scents of crème de cassis, wild blueberries and Black Forest cake, medium to full-bodied palate with opulent black fruit. robertparker.com (31.3.2021)
The palate is succulently supple, sublime and harmonious. Shiveringly long, to die for.
A deep nose of fresh fruit aromas. Chiselled, intense and suave on the palate, with a balance and refinement rarely seen. Creamy and structured.

The palate is full-bodied and powerful, but remains fresh: the balance is perfect. A cuvée that needs time but is already magical, magnificent!
