TASTING NOTES:	The Haut-Brion 2018 Blanc is a blend of 80.6% Sauvignon Blanc and 19.4% Sémillon—this is the highest level of Sauvignon Blanc in the blend ever. Unsurprisingly, it needs a lot of air at this youthful stage, eventually unfurling bit by bit to offer subtle scents of lemon peel, fresh grapefruit, green mango and yuzu, with emerging suggestions of wet pebbles, struck flint, orange blossom and lime leaves with a waft of oyster shells. The medium to full-bodied palate has a gorgeous satiny texture and lovely freshness offsetting the intense stone and citrusy flavors, finishing long and layered. Give this a good 3-4 years to come around and drink it over the next 15 years or more.

About Château Haut-Brion

Château Haut-Brion, nestled in the prestigious Pessac-Léognan appellation within Bordeaux's Graves region, stands as an enduring icon of winemaking excellence. With a storied history tracing back to the 16th century, the estate has evolved under various owners and is currently under the ownership of Domaine Clarence Dillon, overseen by the American financier Prince Robert of Luxembourg.

Haut-Brion holds the rare distinction of being classified as a first-growth (Premier Grand Cru Classé) in the Bordeaux Classification of 1855. The estate's vineyards, graced by gravelly and sandy soils, are planted with classic Bordeaux grape varieties. For the red wines, Cabernet Sauvignon takes center stage, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The white wines are skillfully crafted blends of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.

Renowned for its red wines, Château Haut-Brion exemplifies elegance, complexity, and age-worthiness. Dark fruit flavors harmonize with nuanced notes of tobacco, cedar, and a distinctive mineral character. The structured wines, adorned with fine tannins, possess the capacity to gracefully evolve over extended aging periods.

Equally celebrated are Haut-Brion's white wines, characterized by a refreshing blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Displaying a spectrum of flavors from citrus and tropical fruits to hints of honey and white flowers, these whites showcase freshness, complexity, and impressive aging potential.

As the only estate from Graves included in the 1855 Classification of Médoc and Graves, Château Haut-Brion's historical significance is underscored. The estate's commitment to excellence is reflected in its fusion of traditional winemaking techniques with modern advancements.

Château Haut-Brion, with its legacy deeply intertwined with Bordeaux's winemaking heritage, remains a symbol of unparalleled quality and distinction. The wines produced by this esteemed estate continue to captivate collectors and connoisseurs, standing as a testament to Haut-Brion's unwavering dedication to crafting wines of extraordinary character and finesse.
