Tasting notes
The 1995 Laville-Haut-Brion lacks some of the complexity and intensity of the 1994 and other top years. The wine is tart, with ripe fig, melony, and waxy fruit in the nose and flavors. It is light to medium-bodied, with high acidity and outstanding purity. This is a tasty, refreshing Laville to drink between 2000-2010. Last tasted 11/97

Solid Laville. Plenty of toasted oak and ripe fruit. Full-bodied and very rich, with apple, coconut and fresh fruit on the aftertaste. Surprisingly zingy, good acidity. Best from late this year. James Suckling,Wine Spectator 1998
