This was my WOTN on the Bordeaux side. Decanted for over 4 hrs and needed it.

This is what classic Bordeaux is all about. Perfume of tobacco, leather and cassis gives way to fully resolved tannins in the palate. Good acidity, leather, tobacco and cassis/currants on the palate finish super long. Haut Brion is always amazing and this bottle is definitely near or at its peak.

This really showed well, full bodied & richer than the LM with sweet dark cherry, plum & black currant, leather, tobacco, black pepper, spice cake & violets. Nice vintage for HB. 1 vote for WOTN
