CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2016 Haut-Brion has a gorgeous bouquet with red berry fruit, camphor, wild heather and hints of truffle, all beautifully defined and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, exquisitely balanced, silky smooth and with a very persistent finish. The Merlot is very expressive here at the moment, shaping this Pessac-Leognan. Utterly seductive.
Lisa Perrotti-Brown
The 2016 Haut-Brion is blended of 56% Merlot, 37.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6.5% Cabernet Franc. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the nose is at once profound and arresting, offering drop-dead gorgeous Morello cherries, lilacs and red rose scents with a core of Black Forest cake, warm blackcurrants and blueberry preserves plus wafts of sandalwood and underbrush. Medium-bodied, the elegantly crafted palate is completely packed with intense floral, mineral and cassis-laced flavors with a firm frame of very finely pixelated tannins and seamless freshness, finishing very long and achingly stunning.

Tasted blind. Lustrous dark ruby. Very seductive. Rich and sweet and gorgeous. With a little lift on the (slightly hot) end. (JR)
