Chateau Haut-Brion Le Clarence de Haut-Brion 2012
Region: Pessac-Leognan, Bordeaux, France
Variety: Red Wine
Rating: 90.0

The nose seems understated and reserved at first. However, fine red fruit aromas appear with aeration along with overtones of slightly toasty oak. 2012 Le Clarence de Haut-Brion is full-bodied and powerful with pronounced tannin on the middle palate that tightens up the structure. This tannin is also responsible for the beautiful long aftertaste.
