Lisa Perrotti-Brown

A blend of 53% Merlot, 6.3% Cabernet Franc and 40.7% Cabernet Sauvignon, the deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Haut-Brion sashays gracefully out of the glass with fragrant notions of black raspberries, kirsch, dark chocolate, star anise and candied violets with a core of warm red and black currants and a touch of pencil lead. Medium to full-bodied, the palate bursts with red and black fruit layers, superbly supported by firm, ripe, finely grained tannins and fantastic freshness, finishing very long and mineral laced.

44% Semillon, 56% Sauvignon Blanc (includes a bit of Sauvignon Gris). Another weird gear change, going from 2017 Nahe Rieslings to 2017 Chave Hermitage to 2017 Pessac. The green Sauvignon rasp of Sauvignon sings out on the nose. And tasted straight after the Chave, the acidity is almost shocking, filling the mouth with blanket attack. Despite that, it somehow seems to lack definition. Amorphous. Very very minty - almost soapy. This didn't really shine in the line-up but maybe it was just in a closed phase. (TC)
