The Story
Among the ultra-elite hierarchy of Bordeaux First Growths, Château Haut-Brion occupies a singular space. While its counterparts—Lafite Rothschild, Margaux, Latour, and Mouton Rothschild—reside in the Médoc north of the city, Haut-Brion stands alone in Pessac-Léognan, just outside Bordeaux’s urban core. It is not merely a founding pillar of fine wine history; it is arguably the birthplace of luxury winemaking as we know it today.

Wine Information
1934 A VERY GOOD YEAR
A very handsome wine which seems to have approached its apogee. Still long, full, tannic and with much complexity of taste, with the flavor characteristic of Haut-Brion: smoky, grilled, ripe. Very velvety in the mouth.

Vuosikerta 1934
A vintage that is often described as too tannic and harsh, and in many cases this is true. There are however a number of wines that have been very attractive and charming in recent times, I was particularly impressed by Mouton and Latour. It shows that the harsh tannic wines of Bordeaux will often come if one only has the patience to wait.
