Just when you thought the oldest wine of the night was the 38' FKA Schmitt Pettenthal TBA, this pops up. Again I'll let SC describe the wine again:

Chateau La Mission Haut Brion 1923 was the oldest wine of the pre-auction dinner. Still so fresh with a lovely complex attack, a bit hollow [on the] mid-palate that shows an average vintage, and a long finish with a surprisingly good tannic structure. Stunning!

To add to this, I'd like to say WeinArt did an amazing job sourcing and cellaring this impeccable bottle. Kudos to them! — 6 years ago

This would only have lasted 30 min, but was fantastic with youthful fruit and acidity. — 8 years ago

1923: a glorious nonagenarian, fading away ever so elegantly . Still there, but not capable of conversations it could have a decade or two ago. A pleasure to have tasted. — 10 years ago

This has all the markings of a mountainside red from volcanic soil, but it’s from the Lisbon seaside and has a subtle power that drives through your palette during a virus that has shut us down. — 5 years ago

Very high toned fruit in this wine - strawberries and raspberries. The palette evokes a dark cherry feel. Quite high acid. Fun and unique. — 6 years ago

How to possibly rate this wine? At 93 years old I thought it would be oxidized and dead, but no, there's life in the bottle still! It started with pretty muted dried fruit and loads of earthy pencil shavings and opened to a soft plumminess that was delicate and lovely. The acid was still kicking and while the tannins have faded into memory, the body was still round. This was education in a bottle:) — 9 years ago
