Chateau Haut-Bages Liberal 2015 Pauillac

A refined Pauillac with expressive aromas of cassis, blackberry, graphite, cedar, tobacco, and violet. Elegant yet concentrated, it delivers silky tannins, vibrant freshness, exceptional balance, and remarkable depth with excellent long-term aging potential.

Food Pairing: Pair with beef Wellington, roast lamb, venison, duck breast, truffle dishes, aged Comté, or wild mushroom risotto.

94 Points - James Suckling

Spicy, savory oak leads the bouquet before vibrant aromas of cassis, blackberries and ripe plums emerge. The palate is supported by rich, powerful tannins that carry deep cherry and plum flavors through a long, structured finish. Already well developed, this wine still has further complexity to reveal with additional cellaring. Try from 2022.

94 Points - Wine Enthusiast

From one of the three biodynamic estates owned by Gonzague and Claire Lurton, this wine combines generosity with the property's signature firm structure. A dense, dry core is wrapped in ripe blackberry and blackcurrant fruit, finishing with impressive precision, freshness and clarity. Built for further development, it is best enjoyed from 2024.
