Limpid, clear and bright, with fine smoke, herbs, light cream and stone fruit. Pure and dry, with very good mid-palate volume and acidity. Well balanced, with a medium body and a long, linear finish. Bright but not sharp. 64.5% semillon and 35.5% sauvignon blanc and sauvignon gris

Pale yellow-green, silver reflections. Fine nuances of pear and honeydew melon, cold bouquet marked by Semillon, a hint of lime zest underneath. Juicy, elegant, white fruit nuances, fine acidity, mineral-lemon finish, shows length, a balanced companion at the table

The second wine of both La Mission and Haut-Brion, the 2024 La Clarte De Haut-Brion Blanc is largely Semillon yet includes 35.5% Sauvignon Blanc. Crushed citrus, tart pineapple, mint, and some mineral notes all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied on the palate, with rock-solid mid-palate density, nicely integrated acidity, and a crisp, clean finish. It shows the fresh style of the vintage while still bringing solid depth and texture. It's an impressive second wine

The 2024 La Clarté de Haut Brion is terrific. It offers terrific depth, character and personality. Lemon confit, white pepper, slate, chalk and mint build nicely, but I am most struck by the wine's textural depth and overall presence. This is an especially fine Clarté.

A delicate smoky reduction followed by aromas of pear, spring blossoms and flowers introduces the 2024 La Clarté de Haut-Brion, a medium to full-bodied, sappy and layered wine with a fleshy palate due to its proportion of Sémillon, with a lively, saline texture. This is a blend of 64.5% Sémillon and 35.5% Sauvignon Blanc
