The 2020 La Clarté de Haut-Brion is a blend of 74.8% Sémillon and 25.2% Sauvignon Blanc, harvested from 19th to 28th August, with an estimated alcohol of 13.4%. It opens with intense notes of fresh pineapple, white peaches and lemon curd with suggestions of honeysuckle, paraffin wax and chalk dust. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers bags of juicy peaches and citrus flavors, accented by tropical fruit opulence and supported with refreshing acidity, finishing with a spicy kick.
Aromas of lemons, limes and green apple follow through to a full body, with a dry palate and fruity finish. Plenty of dry pineapple and mangos.
Light yellow-green, silver reflections. Delicate, restrained bouquet; a touch of white tropical fruit and lime zest with a hint of vanilla in the background. Medium complexity, fine white apple fruit, integrated acidity, lean and accessible, fine spicy-lemon finish, salty aftertaste..
