This really shows Haut Brion character, with black currants, blackberries, iodine, oyster shells and stones on the nose and palate. It’s medium- to full-bodied with firm yet open-grained tannins that are rather chewy and muscular. 55.5% merlot, 40.9% cabernet sauvignon and 3.6% cabernet franc. A wine for the cellar. Best after 2028.
94-96. Barrel Sample. Showing some of typical seriousness of Haut-Brion, the wine has structure and a firm layer of tannins. With its smoky aroma, it has spice and a core of dryness.
Cool fresh blueberries on the nose withs some herbal accents. A touch of floraity too but the majority of cooling blue fruit. Sumptuous and succulent, great weight to the tannins, almost chewy and bouncy with great acidity and a really long, streamlined core. This is confident but without trying too hard. I love the dollop of strawberry sweet and sourness that just gives so much life and nuance to the palate. Pure joy but still complex. Harmonious. Shiny.
Floral and vibrant, the 2023 Le Clarence de Haut-Brion opens with aromas of violet, peony, lilac, dark berries and dark cherries. Medium- to full-bodied, juicy and enveloping, it is framed by velvety tannins and concludes with a long, precise and perfumed finish. As is often the case at this address, the élevage has brought additional clarity and purity to the wine’s profile.
