La Mission Haut Brion 1975 750mL (Top Should, Slightly Stained Label)

"The 1975 La Mission Haut-Brion is a timeless wine. Still a saturated ruby-black in hue, it unfurls in the glass with a rich bouquet of dark fruits, cigar ash, camphor, loamy soil, truffles and smoke. Full-bodied and muscular, it's an immensely concentrated, highly extracted wine with a deep core of fruit underpinned by an imposing chassis of rich, chewy tannin that still asserts itself on the finish. The 1975 La Mission is one of the most powerful wines produced during the Woltner era at this château." - Wine Advocate, RP97 (WK0, tasted 2/2022
