Haut-Bages Liberal 1990: Classic wonderful Pauillac

This wine is a true gem. 

Beautifully balanced, with ripe fruit and lovely earthy flavours, a truly superb combination.

It's got a supremely long and powerful finish

Wine-searcher.com says it's about £40, plus taxes. 

It was a little more than that at London's Planet of the Grapes wine shop/bar.

Parker gives it an 87. I'd suggest he needs to re-taste it. 

For me it was not far off a 95. 

A wonderful experience. One for any wine collection.
