Bordeaux Book(1998) Author: Robert Parker Issue: B1

This wine has enjoyed a spectacular development in the bottle, and, while drinkable upon release, it remains one of the most sumptuous, complex, and satisfying Haut-Brions of the last twenty years. It is certainly the finest wine of the vintage from Bordeaux's Left Bank. The wine has taken on a dark plummy/garnet color, and displays a magnificent tres Haut-Brion nose of jammy black fruits, earth, tobacco, smoke, and sweet fruitcake aromas. It is rich and medium to full-bodied, with impressive elegance, purity, and overall harmony. This is not a powerhouse or exceptionally opulent style of Haut-Brion (such as the 1989 and 1990), but, rather, a more structured, yet authoritatively flavorful wine. It offers power, richness, and elegance in a wine with extraordinary equilibrium. Last tasted 10/97

Rich, ripe fruit character beneath a layer of chewy tannins. A bit lean in texture but generous with its focused flavors. Reaching its best now.--Haut-Brion vertical.

Elegant wine. Dark garnet color with aromas of smoke and dried fruit. Dark but incredibly clear (upright 2 weeks prior to opening and carefully decanted). Smoke and dried fruit carry into great flavors complemented by dry aromatic oak. Almost full bodied and has the characteristics of a noble wine. This has been well stored and still showing youth, though undoubtedly fully mature. If you enjoy these aristocratic French wines it doesn't get much better.

Lots of bricking. Fabulous nose of tar/bitumen and smoke, maybe a little sandlewood. A bit of fruit, but that dissipated quickly. Smooth with tannins all gone. Medium finish. Lovely, but even at its peak (which is long gone) this was never a 95+ point wine. Fascinating to drink though, and well worth spending some time with.

Opened for 4 hours befroe serving with Filet topped with gorgonzola and mushrooms in a puff pastry with madeira sauce. As usual, this is an incredible wine that just will not quit. Earth, smokey with that Graves signature, this continues to be a favorite bottle and the crowd agreed
