Château Haut-Brion 1998 is a masterpiece from the heart of Bordeaux. This iconic wine hails from the prestigious Pessac-Léognan appellation, where it has been crafted with unparalleled care since the 16th century. Recognized as one of the world's most revered wines, Haut-Brion consistently delivers a benchmark for quality and elegance. Haut-Brion's history is intertwined with the history of Bordeaux itself. As the only Premier Grand Cru Classé outside of the Médoc, it stands as a testament to the region's diverse terroirs.
The wine offers a complex and evolving bouquet. Expect notes of blackcurrant and blackberry, interwoven with subtle hints of cedar, tobacco, and earthy undertones. As the wine opens, floral nuances of violet and subtle spice emerge, creating a captivating aromatic tapestry. The 1998 Haut-Brion is full-bodied and rich, yet remarkably refined. Velvety tannins seamlessly integrate with the fruit, creating a harmonious and elegant structure. Consider classic French cuisine, such as roasted duck with black cherries or a filet mignon with foie gras. For a more contemporary approach, try pairing it with grilled lamb or venison. Château Haut-Brion 1998 is a wine for extraordinary moments. Whether it's a milestone anniversary, a significant business achievement, or simply a desire to indulge in the pinnacle of winemaking, this bottle is the perfect choice.
We've also got Potensac Half 2020,Château Montrose Jeroboam 2019 (3L).
