Details

Elegant and complex, Château Haut-Brion red presents mineral aromas and a unique complexity. Its strength lays in the finish, which is surprisingly long. This aromatic persistence is due to its very noble origins.

Bright red with garnet-red and purple highlights.
The nose is very expressive and complex: a combination of red and
black fruit, violets, etc., plus a remarkable impression of freshness!
The wine starts out full-bodied and juicy on the palate,
then develops with incredible refinement, showing rich
tannin and plenty of volume, but no aggressiveness.
The wine is broad-based and thick, but not heavy.
Not a hair out of place, nothing to excess.
And what a flavour!!! This Haut-Brion is
undoubtedly one of the château’s greatest successes.
