Product features : Château Haut-Brion 1er Cru Classé 2023 Pessac-Léognan
On the eye
Deep ruby-red robe with excellent clarity and intensity
On the nose
Concentrated bouquet revealing ripe red fruits—raspberry and strawberry—which evolve with maturity towards prune, leather and mocha, gaining complexity and depth
In the mouth
Generous and opulent on the palate with remarkable uniformity and depth. The tannins are refined, the finish long, intense and velvety, with excellent persistence
The 2023 vintage demonstrates Haut-Brion's characteristic elegance and power. Well-balanced acidity supports the wine's structure, whilst the mineral undertones speak to the gravelly terroir. This is a wine of considerable breeding that will reward cellaring for fifteen to twenty-five years, developing the secondary complexity for which this estate is justly celebrated.

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.
