Five centuries of Bordeaux heritage
- Classified as Premier Cru in the 1855 Bordeaux classification, Château Haut-Brion remains one of the most consistently distinguished wines of the Left Bank. Its position among the First Growths reflects decades of meticulous viticulture and winemaking in the Pessac-Léognan terroir.
- The oldest of Bordeaux's great estates, Haut-Brion has been producing wine since the 16th century. This historical continuity, combined with modern expertise, defines its character—a wine that bridges classical elegance with contemporary refinement.
- Built for the cellar, Haut-Brion ages with remarkable grace. The wine's structure and concentration reward patient collectors; a well-stored bottle from a good vintage will develop complexity and depth over two decades or more, revealing layers of secondary flavours.

On the eye
Deep ruby red, with a lustrous intensity characteristic of mature Pessac-Léognan.
On the nose
Concentrated and layered: ripe red fruits—raspberry and strawberry—give way with age to darker notes of plum, leather and mocha. The bouquet remains elegant and refined throughout its evolution.
In the mouth
Generous and opulent, with remarkable harmony between fruit, tannin and acidity. The palate shows depth and uniformity, building to a long, intense and velvety finish that lingers with grace.
Haut-Brion represents everything we value in fine Bordeaux: pedigree without pretension, power tempered by elegance. Whether you approach it as a collector or a serious enthusiast, this wine rewards attention. I have always found it to be one of the most reliable performers in the First Growth category—a bottle that speaks for itself.

CHATEAU HAUT-BRION
Planted on the gravel ridges of Pessac in the Gironde, Château Haut-Brion is the sole château outside the Médoc to have been classified Premier Grand Cru in 1855, across 51 hectares of Pessac-Léognan. Founded in 1525 and acquired in 1935 by American banker Clarence Dillon, the château is today directed by Domaine Clarence Dillon SAS under the chairmanship of Prince Robert de Luxembourg. Its long-lived reds and precisely crafted dry whites stand as an absolute reference point for Bordeaux. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this château for the singular character of its graves terroir, the remarkable consistency of its vintages, and the position it has held, across five centuries, at the summit of the Pessac-Léognan appellation. An essential reference for any serious lover of Bordeaux.
