La Clarté de Haut-Brion 2017, the second white wine of Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion, comes from the gravelly terroirs of Pessac-Léognan. This dry white, a blend of Sémillon (69%) and Sauvignon Blanc (31%), reveals a pale yellow colour and aromas of peach and citrus. Broad and mineral, it pairs beautifully with seafood and can be cellared until 2038; serve between 16 and 18°C.
Nestled in the heart of Pessac-Léognan, this legendary estate has embodied Bordeaux excellence since the 16th century, combining family heritage and timeless expertise.
- Terroir : Deep graves and gravelly soils, bathed in an oceanic climate, lending the wines a distinctive minerality and refined elegance.
- Vinification : Precise blending, barrel ageing for a harmony between fruity freshness and structural complexity.
