319 : Chateau Haut Brion Premier Grand Cru 2012

This auction is closed, biddings on the lot are no longer possible

Darkly pigmented medium to deep colour. Very ripe & rich “Christmas Pudding” aromas - dried fruit and spirit! Palate is ripe, full and soft with warming alcohol - like a liquid Christmas pudding. Tannins are plentiful and smooth, acidity is in balance and flavours last well. Prestigious Premier Cru Classé of 1855, Château Haut-Brion has a rich winegrowing history that goes back further than those of its fellow Médoc estates. Recently, the owner of this Pessac-Léognan estate, Prince Robert de Luxembourg, started a competition to find the oldest written archives of Château Haut-Brion. A researcher in medieval history discovered a reference dated 21 January 1521. The two manuscripts, now preserved in the Gironde Departmental Archives, refer to the vintages "Aubrion" and "Haulbrion". Haut-Brion is also mentioned in the cellar book of King Charles II in 1660.
