Château Haut Brion 1998 Pessac-Léognan (Graves), 1er Cru ClasséHeavily bin marked and scuffed labelsOn Boxing Day 2019 (26 December!), cigary, smoky and heathery on the nose. Finesse of tannin, ripe, exciting flavour, plus elegance allied to balance and structure. A classic of the genre. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 968 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
