Rockss and Fruit
-
By Lyle Fass
(Chateau Haut Brion) More fruit on the nose than the '02. Seems to be in an early drinking style with cassis and cherry fruit on the nose. Extremely forward and lush on the palate with high acid and a trace of heat. Good Haut Brion but the least favorite of the first flight.

Pretty typical HautBrion if a bit lacking in intensity and complexity compared to the better vintages.

Great wine, still young but showing well. Red and black fruits, still mainly primary. Lots of cedar and tobacco. Long and some complexity. Beginning to drink now but will be better in 10 years.

Drunk at an incredible Haut Brion dinner alongside 1966, 1975, 1982, 1985, 1988, 1989 (corked sadly), 1995 and 1996. 82, 85 and 66 were WOTNs. The 2001 was also gorgeous and just starting its drinking window, but will be better with more time. Classic profile of sweet dark fruit, cedar and tabacco. Tannins present but very smooth already. Lovely stuff

Dense dark red with no browning, black currant and savoury bouquet .
Intense concentrated black fruit with long palate , trace of green tannins but more than enough ripe fruit to compensate.
Drinking well now and for at least 10 years
