Chateau Haut Brion on Snooth
I know it wasn't stored "properly"...I have pictures on my system at home. All ... a Magnum bottle of 1959, Chateau Haut Brion Premier Grand Cru...I know it COULD have been a very valuable bottle of wine...but I'm not...
Two for this category: One that I've had, one that I LONG to have. The first, that I've actually tried and was instantly blown away by, was the 1997 Dalla Valle, "Maya"....
this was a real treat to drink w/o food, slowly, savoring it with friends. maganificent nose and explosive on the tongue, it opens gradually and finishes well and long. heavy floral and woody notes and yet somehow delicate...
I would say that's about right.
The 1980 vintage is generally recognized as being the worst for reds from Bordeaux between 1977 and 1984, which are considered even worse. '82 was far and away the best during that period, though '83 does have some...
But bought where, from whom?
It was basically put in a wine rack from the day it was bought.
Another question: do you know the provenance, i.e. how did it get from Pessac-Leognan to that dark basement, and when?
It has been stored in a dark basement with an average temperature of 50 degrees. 3/4 of an inch below the cork. The condition of the cap is excellant. It did no spin at all.
And how high is the level of wine in the bottle, what is the condition of the cap (give it a very gentle twist--does it spin around easily?), label, etc.?
