Haut-Brion is among the top 1% of wines in the world with floral notes        Of perfume, violet and lavender, earthy notes of leather and smoke. A deep purple red with a stunning intenssity. The palate  full-bodied with notes of cherry, red fruit and raspberry. At the swirl, black fruit, black currant and cassis  Caress the mouth with licorice and peppermint dancing on the palate. One experiences a long finish of vanilla and leather.
