A blend of 55% Sémillon and 45% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2021 La Clarté de Haut-Brion exhibits aromas of crisp nectarine, citrus oil, white flowers and freshly baked bread. Medium to full-bodied, lively and textural, it's beautifully balanced, concluding with a long, saline finish. It's worth serious consideration this year.
The 2021 La Clarté de Haut-Brion is a bright, tense dry white that encapsulates the style of the year quite nicely. Lemon peel, white pepper, mint, crushed rocks, slate and light tropical notes all race across the palate in this taut, nervy edition of La Clarté. As a reminder, La Clarté is a blend of fruit from Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion.
