Château Haut-Brion Grand Vin Blanc Pessac-Léognan 2014
One of the World's Greatest Dry White Bordeaux Wines
Description
When we talk about the white wine of Château Haut-Brion, the first words that come to mind are uniqueness, excellence and richness. Château Haut-Brion Blanc is an icon in the world of exceptional white wines. Bordeaux, too, can produce great white wines!
Official Vintage Conditions
2014 was marked by an extraordinary Indian summer that saved the vintage. Fine spring weather provided an excellent start to the growing season, but difficult summer conditions significantly slowed ripening. Fortunately, September brought beautiful dry weather, abundant sunshine, daytime temperatures close to 30°C, and cool nights. These ideal conditions enabled the grapes to ripen perfectly and reach the vat house in outstanding sanitary condition and at optimum maturity.
