Chateau Haut-Brion – Premier Grand Cru Classe Pessac Leognan – 2014

Blend of 50% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 11% Cabernet Franc.

Deep, dark red color. The nose is very deep with powerful aromas of black fruit and spice. The wine starts out quite powerful on the palate, but softens on the middle palate, developing a lovely velvety texture. The finely polished tannic structure is enhanced by considerable concentration and full, luscious body.

Full of ripe fruit, opulent and concentrated, this is a fabulous and impressive wine. It has a beautiful line of acidity balanced with ripe fruits. The wood aging is subtle, just a hint of smokiness and toast. This is one of those wines, from a great white wine vintage, that will age many years.  Wine Enthusiast – 100
