Futures La Clarte de Haut Brion 2020

Crafted in the prestigious Pessac-Léognan appellation of Bordeaux, La Clarté de Haut-Brion 2020 holds a unique and celebrated position in the world of fine wine. Serving as the shared second white wine for two legendary estates—Château Haut-Brion (First Growth) and Château La Mission Haut-Brion—this exceptional dry white captures the dual heritage of Domaine Clarence Dillon. Sourced from gravelly, clay-limestone soils overlying deep sand, the 2020 vintage blends Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc, hand-harvested and fermented in French oak barrels (around 45% to 50% new) with regular stirring on fine lees (bâtonnage) to build remarkable aromatic complexity and textural richness.

Food Pairing: Pan-seared sea scallops, lobster thermidor, roasted poultry in cream sauce, grilled turbot, and delicate goat cheeses.
