This beautiful white Haut Brion de La Clarté has a lovely pale yellow color. The nose of this Clarté is relatively aromatic, revealing a wonderfully clear, pronounced expression of Sauvignon Blanc, which dominates the blend. The initial taste is full, flavorful, and vibrant at the same time: Sémillon, unobtrusive on the nose, emerges on the palate, offering a fruity, elegant, and smooth sensation. A wonderful impression of balance, despite its average length on the palate. This is a blend of 56.3% Sauvignon Blanc and 43.7% Sémillon. The Clarté was the wine served at the Oscars.

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | Deze bleekgele, aromatische Clarté toont een duidelijke Sauvignon-expressie met frisse citrus en kruidige accenten, terwijl de 43,7% Sémillon in de mond zorgt voor rijp, zacht fruit en een elegante, evenwichtige zachtheid. Daardoor werkt de wijn uitstekend bij witte vis en schelpdieren omdat de zuurgraad en mineraliteit de zeevruchten verlevendigen, en tegelijk vult de zachte Sémillon romige sauzen en subtiele texturen aan; bij salades en terrasmomenten zorgt de frisse expressie voor verkwikking en bij romantische gelegenheden voor sierlijke finesse. Kies voor simpele bereidingen zoals licht gegrilde of in boter gebakken vis, ceviche of oesters, schelpdieren in een lichte wijn- of beurre blancsaus en salades met een citroen- of wittewijnvinaigrette om de combinatie extra goed tot zijn recht te laten komen. |

Aromas of smoke, white fruits and ripe orchard fruits preface the 2023 La Clarté de Haut-Brion blanc, a medium-bodied, round and supple wine that is fruity and elegant on the finish. This is a blend of 56.3% Sauvignon Blanc and 43.7% Sémillon.

From: Bordeaux at the Crossroads: 2023 En Primeur (April 2024)
The 2023 La Clarté de Haut-Brion is the second white wine from La Mission and Haut-Brion. It offers terrific cut and focus. Citrus peel, white flowers, mint, crushed rocks, white pepper and a touch of reduction lend notable energy to this airy, sculpted dry white. Time in the glass reveals its lovely mid-palate texture, rounding things out. The 2023 is a fine Clarté.
- By Antonio Galloni on April 2024
There is plenty to like in the 2023 reds from both La Mission Haut-Brion and Haut-Brion. “It is the second most tannic year here, after only 2010,” Deputy Managing Director Jean-Philippe Delmas told me. That seems to be especially evident at La Mission, where the reds have a feeling of edginess in the tannins. Readers should also note that all the whites are Sauvignon Blanc--driven, as Sémillon was picked in the middle of a heat wave.

Château Haut-Brion is located in the French municipality of Pessac, a few kilometers southwest of the city of Bordeaux. Haut-Brion is the oldest and historically the most colorful Gironde winery - it was here that the first Bordeaux was made from a single vineyard in the 17th century, first donated in London coffee houses and praised by many leading writers. In 1935, the winery was bought by Clarence Dillon, an American banker. He invested large sums in the renovation of the chai and the vineyard. In 1960, Haut-Brion became the first premier cru, replacing the wooden barrels with stainless steel tanks. In 1983, the Dillon family bought the adjacent Château la Mission Haut-Brion.
The vineyard covers an area of 51 hectares of which just over 48 hectares are planted with red grape varieties (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot) and just under 3 hectares are dedicated to white grape varieties (Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc).
