Juicy citrus, green apple and tropical fruit rush out of the glass in the 2020 La Clarté de Haut-Brion Blanc, wrapped in a silky texture that still crackles with tension. Grapefruit, lime and a touch of pineapple and mango glide across a medium-to-full palate, lifted by cool herbal notes and a faint chalky bite on the finish, making this feel both generous and refreshingly precise. It’s a particularly vibrant, fruit-driven expression of this wine, with impressive energy for the warm 2020 vintage.

La Clarté de Haut-Brion Blanc is the shared second white wine of Château Haut-Brion and Château La Mission Haut-Brion, born in 2009 from the gravelly Pessac-Léognan terroir and crafted mainly from Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc. It typically combines vivid citrus, white‑flower and mineral aromatics with a supple, waxy mid‑palate and bright, mouthwatering acidity, offering a refined, earlier‑drinking glimpse into the grand vin whites of these two legendary estates.
