Robert Parker's Wine Advocate : The 2014 Haut Brion Blanc has a very pure bouquet with scents of peach skin, Cornice pear and these resinous candle wax aromas that I noticed during the primeur. It is more sophisticated than the one in La Mission Haut Brion Blanc, with more tension.
The buoy is medium bodied with a silky entry, perfect acidity, wonderful tension and energy. Notes of orange marrow, lime, flint and smoke are transmitted on the final which shows exceptional persistence. It’s a great Haut Brion Blanc, but it will take a decade in the bottle before it shows what it’s capable of.
Blend : 68% Sémillon and 32% Sauvignon.
