Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1937
6 bottles per lot
RARE HAUT BRION 1937 FROM A SWISS COLLECTOR Offered in a carton Château Haut-Brion--Vintage 1937 Pessac (Graves), 1er cru classé Bin-soiled labels, two of which are slightly torn. Levels: one top, three upper and two mid/upper-shoulder Tasting note: To everyone's surprise, the 1937 Haut-Brion out-performed the 1947, and the soft, fully mature 1962. 1937 has a justifiable reputation for being a hard vintage, but one could see through the austere, still tannin-dominated 1937 Haut-Brion to admire the healthy, dark, dense color with only some amber at the edge. Minerals, tobacco, cedar, and coffee aromas were followed by a muscular, medium-bodied wine with plenty of power and fruit. But the vintage's tell-tale hard tannin was still present. This particular magnum of 1937 Haut-Brion would have lasted another 20-30+ years. I suspect many 1975s are the modern day clones of the 1937 vintage.
