- Classified Red Wine. Cru Classe de Graves in 1959. This producer also makes a white wine. Ensure your merchant has the color you are looking for.
  
  Critic tasting note: (1924 vintage) "Surprisingly good for the vintage, the wine is elegant, refined, supple, and packed with tobacco-laced cherries, plums, cigar wrappers, and scorched earth. Complex, long, and with fabulous energy, this is one of those bottles I will never see again, but it was certainly a wine to remember. Drink from 2024-2029." - Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
