Tasted 5 Times With Consistent Notes A huge, port-like bouquet of chocolatey, cedary, earthy, plummy fruit demonstrates the extraordinary ripeness that was achieved in the 1947 vintage. Very alcoholic, powerful and rich, but at the same time velvety and sweet, this wine was probably as close to a late harvest La Mission-Haut-Brion as one is likely to experience. It is an exceptional wine with great flavor dimension and length.
