1988 Château Haut-Brion

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Saturday, March 12, 2022 - Cellared since release, perfect cork and fill. Double decanted 4 hours before serving. Dark red core, not much lightening. Nice nose of smoke, cassis, but seemed closed compared to the cornucopia of other Haut Brion and La Missions tasted that night. Medium full body, good balance, not much complexity. If served on its own I’d say it’s excellent and still too young, but compared to all the others I’m wondering if it has the stuffing to really blossom and have to rate it very good in context.
