Effects of AGING? 3 Vintages of HAUT BRION!

Why do wine collectors age wine? In this video, we explore the effects of aging on great wines, specifically Château Haut-Brion, which is a First Growth Bordeaux. We try three different vintages: 2019 (which is practically brand new!), 2005 (aged more than 17 years), and 1990 (aged more than 30 years). How will they compare to each other? How do tannins, mouthfeel, and flavors change over time in red wine? And are the rewards worth the wait? Watch our video to find out with us! We also invited one of our favorite sommeliers, Stacey, to help us navigate this experiment.


Cheers!
