Score 86/100 · Drink 2018-2020, Neal Martin, Jul 2018

The 1971 Laville Haut-Brion is slightly oxidative on the nose, with walnut and marmalade scents, and not nearly as vital as the follow-up vintage. The palate shows more composure than the nose, with a satisfying viscous texture and a walnut tinged finish that perhaps is beginning to feel fatigued. Tasted at a private dinner.
