Chateau La Tour Haut Brion, Pessac Leognan 2001

"Fantastic aromas of minerals, blackberries and licorice follow through to a medium- to full-bodied palate, with fine tannins and a long. silky finish. A beauty. This is nearly always outstanding. The real thing."- Wine Spectator

"Ripe merlot notes of smoky raspberry and mocha dominate the nose. Fat, full and generous; lush and sweet. Very suave wine, with notes of minerals and hot bricks. Finishes with fine, integrated tannins and lovely persistence."-Vinous
