Haut-Brion Premier Grand Cru Classé 1959

STILL YOUNG

You won’t believe this, a 58 year old bottle and I was still screaming that it was young! To rub it in, this bottle was from a 375ml half sized bottle which was supposed to age faster. Also, serving next to the legendary 89 doesn’t help as both are extremely youthful.

The 59 was simply almost an identical clone of 89, except that it has a lot more depth and sophisticated tastes, coupled with countless layers, except that tannins are still lurking around. I think this really needs another 30y.
