AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Château Haut-Brion 1986 is an exceptional bottle from one of the most historic and prestigious estates in Bordeaux. Located in Pessac-Léognan, Château Haut-Brion holds the distinction of being the only estate outside the Médoc to have been included among the Premier Crus Classés in the famous 1855 Bordeaux Classification.

The 1986 vintage is regarded as one of the great classic Bordeaux vintages of the decade, producing structured, long-lived wines with remarkable ageing potential.
