What a spectacular wine is the 1954 Laville Haut-Brion. Even Michael Broadbent dubbed it into heaven. This wine displays a deep, golden yellow color with great clarity. The nose is expressive, featuring notes of oven-baked pastry, orange peel, and dried stone fruit. The cork was in unbelievably pristine condition, hinting at the care with which this bottle has been preserved. Tasting this lively white liquid is a revelation. It offers a bone-dry finish combined with a lingering, mouth-watering aftertaste. This is yet another proof that these bottles are made for the long haul, embodying the essence of longevity in fine wine. Truly, this wine is like "a young boy wearing old clothes."
