CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2022 Le Clarence de Haut-Brion is a little high-toned and more opulent than the La Chapelle Mission Haut-Brion, developing more blueberry fruit and delineation as it opens in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet, slightly candied entry. This is a generous La Clarence that just tapers in a little toward the finish. Therefore, afford this a couple of years in bottle.

Tasted blind. Smudgy crimson. Rich and ripe on the nose. But pretty sharp on the end. Needs lots of time but probably has the ingredients to please eventually. Stony. (JR)
