94 100Robert Parker's Wine AdvocateTasted at BI Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Haut Brion has a perfumed bouquet with abundant red fruit, sage, sandalwood and black olive scents that just seem to soar from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, beautifully judged acidity and a gentle build in the mouth towards the savory/meaty finish. There is class interwoven into this Haut Brion from start to finish, and the persistence is very impressive. This is just reaching its drinking tray.
Intense, dark purple red, with black reflections.
Fruity, fresh, pure, plum nuances.
Ample, then fleshy, rich and complete, melting and very elegant in its texture and touch, fantastic finish of freshness, flesh and above all great class.
The Château Haut-Brion vineyard is located in the town of Pessac, a few kilometers southwest of Bordeaux, and extends over 51 hectares. The terroir is made up of two gravel ridges. These gravels are small pebbles, made of different varieties of quartz, real precious stones from the Château Haut-Brion terroir.
Vatting in 225 hl stainless steel vats, aging for 18 to 22 months in barrels, 80% of which is new wood.
