Description

Characteristics and tasting tips for Château Haut-Brion 2023 Blanc

Tasting

Colour
The colour seduces with its pale yellow hue and green reflections.

Nose
The nose combines fruity fragrances (peach, citrus, lime) and floral (lilac, jasmine).

Palate
The ample and round attack gives way to an intense and persistent palate.

The vivacity and structure of a great Pessac-Léognan white wine

The estate

The oldest of the Bordeaux Grands Crus, the Château Haut-Brion benefits from a rich heritage built over five centuries of history. Founded in 1533 by Jean de Pontac in the Graves region, the wine of Château Haut-Brion was quickly coveted and appreciated by the greatest monarchs of Europe. In 1663, Samuel Pepys, a member of the English Parliament, unknowingly contributed to the success of Château Haut-Brion through his diary, writing " And there, I drank a sort of French wine called Ho-Bryan which had a very particular good taste that I had never encountered... ". The legend was born. First Grand Cru Classé outside Médoc in 1855 and recognized Cru Classé in the Official Classification of Graves Wines in 1959, Château Haut-Brion continues to write the legend of the greatest wines in the world by confirming, vintage after vintage, its exceptional regularity.

The vineyard

A reference among the great Pessac-Léognan wines and located in the heart of the Pessac agglomeration, Château Haut-Brion has an exceptional terroir on soils composed of multicoloured gravels, producing sumptuous, elegant, precise wines with incredible regularity from one vintage to another.

The vintage

A cool and rainy winter precedes a spring whose alternation of warm days with relative humidity promotes both the rapid and homogeneous bud burst of the vineyard and a significant mildew pressure controlled by the know-how and reactivity of the teams. The flowering is qualitative and suggests a generous harvest. Carried out under warm and clement conditions, the harvest reveals fresh and aromatic white grapes as well as red grapes ideally combining concentration and vivacity with a beautiful fruity structure.

Vinification and ageing

Ageing in barrels (of which 50.3% are new).

Blend

Sauvignon Blanc (58.1%)
Sémillon (41.9%).
