Jeb Dunnuck (99)With roughly 8,333 cases produced, the 2023 Château Haut-Brion has sensational aromatics of blackcurrants, scorched earth, graphite, and the classic cold fireplace-driven nuances that define this magical estate. It's medium to full-bodied and concentrated on the palate, with ultra-fine yet building tannins, a deep, layered mouthfeel, and a great finish. This brilliant Haut-Brion deserves a solid decade of bottle age and will cruise for 40+ years in cold cellars. Drink 2035-2075. |

Wine Advocate (96)Tasted blind, the 1998 Haut-Brion Blanc served as a pertinent reminder of how this wine needs bottle age. Here it has a captivating bouquet of lemon curd, custard cremes, lemon thyme and minerals that just explode from the glass, later offering Japanese yellow plum and sherbet scents. The palate is creamy-textured with perfect acidity and fine tension. This is very harmonious and assured, sporting great depth on the marzipan-tinged finish that is long and sensual, and yet it is clear that this Haut-Brion Blanc will age with style and panache. Tasted April 2015. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (91-93)Musky, complex nose melds lime, pineapple, coconut and smoke. Fat, dense and concentrated; more glyceral and chewy than the 2000 Laville. Finishes long and deep, with a rich, honeyed quality. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (93)Bright, pale yellow color. Highly complex but subtle aromas of yellow plum, honey and vanilla. Fatter and fuller than the young 2002, with superb thickness of texture but also terrific definition and cut. Big, chewy wine, with an almost saline impression of extract. This really fills the mouth. Very long and gripping on the back. |

Wine Advocate (95)The 2013 Haut Brion Blanc, which is a blend of 66% Sauvignon Blanc and 34% Semillon, has a more expressive bouquet than the 2013 La Mission Haut Brion Blanc, with mineral-rich citrus fruit, grapefruit and honeysuckle - all very vivacious. The palate is very well balanced, intense and exuberant with lanolin-tinged citrus fruit, dried pineapple, almond, sweet fig and a dash of lemongrass on the long finish. This is just a superb Haut Brion Blanc that should give two or three decades of pleasure. |

Jeb Dunnuck (97)More closed and reticent than the La Mission Haut Brion Blanc, the 2014 Haut Brion Blanc is a blend of 68% Sémillon and 32% Sauvignon Blanc all brought up in barrel, with no malolactic fermentation. It reluctantly gives up notes of citrus, orange marmalade, and mint, with a liquid rock-like minerality emerging with time in the glass. Concentrated, medium to full-bodied, with bright acidity, a stacked mid-palate, and a great, great finish, it’s all promise at this point, but should start to sing in 2-3 years. It’s an insanely good dry white from Pessac that’s going to keep for two to three decades. |

James Suckling (100)This is crazy quality. The depth and intensity is really something. It is so compact and powerful with such intensity and density. Energy. So structured. Full-bodied. Layered and superb. Like a great Montrachet from a great vintage, but so Haut Brion. Speechless. Perfect wine. |

Jeb Dunnuck (98+)The 2020 Château Haut-Brion Blanc is on another level and is clearly in the top handful of whites in the vintage. Extraordinary notes of white grapefruit, crushed citrus, earthy minerality, toasted nuts, and sappy flower notes define the aromatics, and this beauty hits the palate with full-bodied richness, flawless, high, yet integrated acidity, and a liquid rock-like sense of minerality on the finish. White Bordeaux does not get much better, and this heavenly white deserves 4-6 years of bottle age and will evolve for decades. |

James Suckling (98-99)A complex, thought-provoking white. Vibrant and exciting with green herbs, stones and hints of aniseed and wet sea weed. Sea salt, too. It’s full-bodied and tight on the palate and rather shy. But then it takes off at the end and accelerates. Phenolic, with fine tannins. Iron. Oyster shell. 57% semillon and 43% sauvignon. |

Jeb Dunnuck (100)Based on 58% Sauvignon Blanc and 42% Sémillon, the 2023 Château Haut-Brion Blanc is clearly a step up and has sensational aromatics of crushed citrus, white figs, mint, crushed stone, and a kiss of clean reduction. It's medium to full-bodied on the palate and pure, layered, and round, with incredible depth and a great, great finish. This is a killer white that will evolve for decades. It doesn't get better in Bordeaux Blanc. This reference white will need 7-8 years of bottle age to hit its plateau of prime drinking. Drink 2034-2054. |
