Château Haut-Brion
Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend
The 95 is broader, riper, rounder and more lush than the 94. Sweet ripe cooked blackberries, black raspberries, black plum, cooked strawberry compote, dry cranberries, sweet spice, dark cocoa, dried flowers, dry tobacco leaf, soft leather, sweetened coffee grounds, wet black earth, gravely pebbles and round dark fruit finish that doesn't end. Out of 375ml. It's perfect now and will last in good form another 5-7 years in 375ml. Proper storage of course.
