(01-1998) The 1979 is another full-flavored, robust wine from Haut-Bages-Liberal. Quite dark ruby, with an appealing ripe cassis, spicy bouquet, and a full-bodied, meaty texture, this wine has high acidity and enough tannin to warrant cellaring. Neither refined nor elegant, it is robust, rustic, and straightforward.
