Chateau Haut Brion 2004
Pessac-Leognan
Bottle (12)

The La Cave Collection. Wines from a Texas Collector, all pristinely stored since release in a commercial wine storage facility

"This is one of the surprise sleeper wines of the vintage which has more successes than many people suspect in spite of all the rain. The tremendous drainage enjoyed by the Haut Brion vineyard worked in its favor during this wet September harvest. The color is deep plum/ruby with a bit of lightening at the edge. Notes of compost, truffle, earth, spice box, dried herbs, and licorice compete with sweet black cherry and currant fruit. The wine is medium-bodied, with a relatively plump, chewy feel to it. It is certainly one of the top half dozen or so wines of the vintage. The tannins are still there, but the wine seems far more accessible than the two bigger wines that Haut Brion produced in 1995 and 1996." (92 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Dec. 2002)

"By far and away the best wine of the evening, the Haut Brion has a pretty bouquet that becomes floral in the glass. Classic dark black fruit infused with cedar, truffle and tobacco gain intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins. Foursquare but well balanced, the Haut-Brion '94 has retained vigor and style, a perfect gentleman's claret." (91 pts. Neal Martin, Wine Journal, July 2014)
