Bahans Haut-Brion
-
Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (87-89)
Good full red. Currant, plum, minerals, roasted nuts, cedar, and a sweet marzipan note on the nose. Smooth, fresh and deep on the palate; a mineral pungency and firm structure give the wine good grip. Here the tannins coat more of the mouth. The '97 will make a more agreeable drink in the two or three years following the bottling than this vintage, but this '96 is a more serious wine.$1,730.00 -

The 1998 Bahans Haut-Brion is deep garnet-brick in color with a very serious nose of crème de cassis, baked blackberries and blueberry fruits with hints of earth, meat, menthol and thyme. The palate is medium to full-bodied, rich, seductive, plush and long with a refreshing lift.$1,570.00 -
