The original first growth, this wine is often the most balanced and subtle of all Bordeaux red wines. The 1982 vintage is deep purple-red, with a nose of ripe dark berry, cassis and minerality, and on the palate layer upon layer of dark fruit, leather and spice ease gently toward a long, complex finish. In the early 16th century when Médoc was a swamp, Haut-Brion was already a famous wine; owned by U.S. banker Clarence Dillon since 1935, this estate has been a technology innovator in Bordeaux making one of the world's greatest wines.
Serve at 18℃; this wine is still young and needs 1.5+ hours in the decanter; matches with lamb, Prime rib or roast duck.
18 months in new French oak.
25+ years.
