| Over het wijnhuis | Château Haut-Brion, gevestigd in Pessac-Léognan, is het enige landgoed dat in twee afzonderlijke classificaties is opgenomen. Ondanks het feit dat het landgoed niet in de Médoc gevestigd is, heeft Château Haut-Brion toch de Premier Grand Cru Classé status weten te bemachtigen in 1855. Daarnaast is het geclassificeerd als Cru Classé de Graves. Het is, kortom, één van de meest legendarische wijnen van de wereld. |

| Awards | "More closed and shy than La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion, the 2021 Le Clarence de Haut-Brion offers up a delicate, complex bouquet with aromas of plums, spices, lead pencil, licorice and dark berries. Medium to full-bodied with a structuring core of fruit, it’s seamless and vibrant with a long, penetrating finish. Keep it over the next decade." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "This is deep for a 2021, with blackberries, walnuts, chocolate and hazelnuts. Very subtle. Medium body, with an appealingly creamy center palate. Beautiful now but will improve with age." - James Suckling "70.4% Merlot, 18.2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11.4% Cabernet Franc. Cask sample. Fragrant red-fruit notes. Broad and smooth on attack with finely integrated tannins. Palate a bit more subdued but fresh with firmness on the finish. Room for development. (JL)" - Jancis Robinson "Woodland fruits with a backdrop of black-pepper spices set the scene for the second-label wine of Haut-Brion. It is powerful, with some firm tannins and integrated acidity. Drink this fine wine from 2027." - Wine Enthusiast "Dark chocolate and red cherries on the nose, so aromatic, rich and seductive. Joyful and lifted on the palate, strawberries and plums to the fore but creamy and chalky with such a sappy, agile and lively energy. Lightly framed so you get the aerial expansion of flavour but the texture that grips is chalky and mineral giving a welcome salinity and touch of tobacco and smoke that lands on the tongue. Beautifully presented, smooth and well defined, such succulence and density with no let up through the palate. Intensity, clarity and focus. An excellent second wine in 2021." - Decanter |
