TASTING NOTES:
One of the stars of the vintage, the 2014 Haut-Brion is an exceptionally beautiful and vivid wine. Super-ripe dark cherry, plum, tobacco and menthol are some of the notes that run through the 2014. Just as it did from barrel, the 2014 boasts tons of opulence, intensity and richness. Dried flowers, tobacco, menthol, licorice and smoke wrap around the huge, baritone-inflected finish.

BRAND NAME: Château Haut-Brion
The history of Château Haut Brion, the oldest of Bordeaux’s Grands Crus, lasted five centuries. Its name refers to the Gascon toponym “Haut Brion” which designates a gravelly terrace. In 1855, Haut Brion rose to the rank of Premier Cru Classé. In 1935, Château Haut Brion was acquired by the American banker Clarence Dillon who modernized the property. Since then, the property is still part of the same family.
