Lot Details
Description
Château Laville Haut-Brion 1998
Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Cru Classé
Levels into the neck
80% Sémillon, 20% Sauvignon Blanc. A bouquet of greatness. So honied. Lemons and lychees on the nose - enormous impact and weight. One could compare it with the fabulous 1989. On the palate, the high proportion of Sémillon comes on very strong. So rich, fat and yet with perfect acidity balance. The empty glass smells of lavender. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
