Description

Haut Brion is the only one of First Growths, which doesn't come from Haut-Médoc. It's situated just opposite La Mission Haut Brion in Péssac, neighbouring suburb to Talence. It was during Georges Delmas' reign, who arrived at Haut Brion in 1921, that Haut Brion underwent extensive improvements in the vineyard and cellar. He functioned as both the manager and regisseur, and Haut Brion came up with many outstanding vintages during his stay. His son, Jean-Bernard Delmas, followed him in 1961 and took care of Haut Brion until 2003. During his reign, Haut Brion has really been flying high. Jean-Philippe Delmas has taken over responsibility for Haut Brion from his father in 2003 and the high quality has been maintained.

There are 43 ha of vines planted with 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc. Vines are 36 years old on average and Haut Brion spends 22 months in new oak.

Haut Brion is rather heavier wine to "dance" with than La Mission Haut Brion. It's strong and powerful with enormous depth, richness and length. It's masculine and not "filled" with silk, like sister property La Mission Haut Brion. Haut Brion represents all the things you love in Bordeaux wines – unique soil, style, class and refinement. It's keeping abilities can easily last 3-4-5 decades.
