Chateau Haut-Brion Blanc 2019

One of Bordeaux's most legendary dry white wines, Château Haut-Brion Blanc offers extraordinary aromas of grapefruit, lemon zest, white peach, acacia blossom, toasted hazelnut, flint, and subtle oak. Richly textured yet impeccably fresh, it delivers remarkable precision, complexity, and exceptional aging potential.

Food Pairing: Pair with lobster, grilled turbot, scallops, roast chicken, creamy seafood pasta, truffle risotto, or aged goat cheese.

This is crazy quality. The depth and intensity is really something. It is so compact and powerful with such intensity and density. Energy. So structured. Full-bodied. Layered and superb. Like a great Montrachet from a great vintage, but so Haut Brion. Speechless. Perfect wine.

The 2019 Château Haut-Brion Blanc is a more Sauvignon Blanc-dominated white that includes 36% Semillon. Its light gold hue is followed by a bright, racy Sauvignon nose of crushed limes, caramelized grapefruit, white flowers, and subtle minerality. It's incredibly pure, vibrant, and crystalline on the nose. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied and shows the richer side of the vintage with good mid-palate density, bright, juicy, clean acidity, flawless balance, and a great finish. It's a beautiful, elegant, seamless Blanc that will evolve for 20 or 30 years if well stored. Bravo! Best after 2022.

This Haut-Brion 2019 Blanc is a blend of 64.4% Sauvignon Blanc and 35.6% Semillon, harvested from the 29th of August to the 9th of September. The estimated label alcohol degree is 14%. The nose is quite subdued to begin, soon unfurling to offer fragrant scents of orange blossoms, white peaches and lime cordial with hints of oyster shell, fresh ginger, pomelo and kumquat plus a suggestion of jasmine. The medium to full-bodied palate has a seducing hint of oiliness texturing the intense citrus and chalky layers, lifted by bold freshness and finishing with incredible length and perfume. Just stunning.

The richness of the Sauvignon Blanc in this wine is outstanding. Combined with a tight mineral texture and the purity of the fruits, the wine is on the cusp of something seriously great. It will certainly age over many years.

97 Points - Decanter

Clear difference in personality from La Mission Blanc, tons of rich texture, but more pulled together, with the Sauvignon making its mark. Feels poised at exactly the right level of ripeness, where there is so much flavour, it drips with citrus and nectarine alongside hints of green leaf and juice. One to savour, a brilliant Haut Brion Blanc with mouthwatering salinity on the finish.
