Description

A chance to try one of the last vintages of this small estate before it was sadly subsumed into the much larger La Mission Haut-Brion estate in 2005.

Wine Advocate #140
Apr 2002 Robert Parker 90 Drink: 2002 - 2017.
"The 1999 has put on weight since I tasted it last year. It is a sexy, open-knit, deep ruby-colored effort, exhibiting a smoky nose of melted asphalt, truffles, cassis, and tobacco, enticing sweetness on the attack, low acidity, and a smoky, ripe rich finish. Along with the 2000, 1999 is one of the two finest La Tour-Haut Brions produced under the new owners, who acquired the estate in 1983. Drink this captivating, complex Graves over the next 10-15 years."

Neal Martin of the Wine Advocate rated it 91-92 points as follows:
"In March 2000 it appeared a little jammy and I scored it parsimoniously. But a real surprise in 2003 at the IMW horizontal where it almost outshone La Mission and Haut-Brion! A very subtle nose of sweet black cherry, minerals and vanilla. The palate has firm tannins, fine acidity and a lot of vigour. Robust and muscular with savoury fruits, dried blood and roasted meats. A stern wine but very classy. A return to the legendary wines of the 1970’s? Maybe. Tasted November 2003."
