In the galaxy of great wines, Château Haut-Brion reigns almost unchallenged. This Premier Grand Cru Classé, situated in the terroir of Pessac-Léognan, consistently produces outstanding vintages; every cuvée that emerges from its cellars meets the same exacting standards.
This includes the second wine, La Clarté de Haut-Brion, which offers an absolutely remarkable level, endowed with the full range of the estate's incomparable white wine characteristics. A blend from the young vines of Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion, this majestic white has excellent aging potential and competes with the very best.
Produced in limited quantities and composed predominantly of Sauvignon Blanc (56%), the 2023 La Clarté de Haut-Brion releases fine aromas of ripe fruits and white flowers in a very harmonious mouthfeel.
Rated 90-92/100 by Parker, this is a superb bottle from one of Bordeaux's most spectacular estates.
