Old, polished wood nose, with delightful suggestion of sweetness and that tobacco and burning incense smokiness. On the palate the La Mission Haut Brion 1955 has exceptional purity to the fruit, with luscious, sweet, fantastically opulent spiced compote fruit and that smoky, smouldering quality adding to the supple tannin and sprightly acidity. The 1955 La Mission Haut Brion is a fabulous wine.
