Chateau Laville Haut Brion Blanc, Grand Cru Classe 2006 (RP 98, WS 93)

  White Wine from Bordeaux, France

This 2006 has a huge nose of tropical fruit, including pineapple, as well as a liqueur of minerality, with quince, white citrus, and a hint of subtle toast. Full-bodied, with huge concentration, an almost flinty mouthfeel, zesty acidity, and a monster finish, this is a prodigious Laville Haut-Brion that needs about 10 years of cellaring and should last 30 or more years.” Robert Parker
