Tasted blind. Simple direct nose. Round and sweet but without much real interest. Rather drying, hot finish. Gritty tannins. But fresh on the finish.

Chateau Haut-Brion is the oldest and by far the smallest of the "Premiers Grands Crus" vineyards of the Gironde 1855 classification. Chateau Haut-Brion is one of the few remaining family-owned domains of the Bordeaux region with a history going back to the 16th century. It has been owned by the American Dillon family since 1935.
Grown on the same land as Chateau Haut-Brion, Chateau Bahans Haut-Brion, profits from the same planting and harvest techniques, and has the advantage of the same rigorous selection and thoroughness in vinification as the "Grand Vin".
Bahans Haut-Brion is aged partly in new barrels and partly in barrels that have been used for the previous year's First Growth. Bahans-Haut-Brion changed in 2007 to Clarence de Haut-Brion in recognition of Clarence Dillon.
