A blend of Cab Sauv, Merlot & Cab Franc. Deep Ruby with ripe berry fruit aromas with sweet toasty notes. On the palate rich cherry & blackberry flavors that packs a punch with dusty flinty tannins that develop nicely in the glass. Lingering ending with an earthy mineral tang. Very nice, but wait a bit, still young.

Haut Brion is slowly becoming a favorite Chateau of mine in Bordeaux. I will buy anything I see from here going forward.

Blend of 54% cab franc, 32% merlot, & 14% cab sauv. Floral nose with flavors of smoke, tobacco along with some red and black fruits. First time trying this wine and I was very impressed. For $60 will definitely be buying more to put in cellar.

55% Cabernet Franc, 30% Merlot, beautifully round and fruity, will be fantastic in 10 years
