The 1990 Haut-Brion is a sensational wine, refined and remarkably elegant in style, showing fantastic aromas of dried cherry and plum which are immediately followed by a raw meaty character, smoke, tobacco, dried earth and stony minerals. This demonstrates wonderful finesse with remarkable balance and a beautiful silky texture, of which you only find in Bordeaux of this pedigree. The finish is silky and caressing, laced with flavors of dried cherries, tobacco and crushed rock, which carry on and on. This has the class to instantly win over any wine lover.
