Le Clarence de Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan rouge 2021 0,75l

Le Clarence de Haut-Brion is the second wine of the legendary Château Haut-Brion in Pessac-Léognan. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot are aged in oak barrels to create a wine of notable depth. The bouquet shows dark berries, violets, graphite, damp earth and a touch of truffle. On the palate it is powerful, muscular and finely etched, with focused, persistent tannins. Energetic acidity keeps the rich fruit in balance and drives a long, complex finish. A serious second wine that shines alongside roast beef, game dishes or refined haute cuisine. Patience in the cellar will be rewarded with even greater complexity.
