The Château Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan Premier Grand Cru Classé 2016 CB1 is a true icon and one of Bordeaux’s most historic estates. As a First Growth (1855) — and the only one located outside the Médoc — Haut-Brion is celebrated for its unique combination of power, complexity, and refined elegance.
In the glass, the wine displays a deep ruby colour with intense brilliance. The nose is exceptionally complex and layered, offering aromas of cassis, black cherry, and ripe plum, complemented by refined notes of graphite, cedar wood, cigar box, dark chocolate, earthy minerality, and subtle smoky nuances — signatures of Haut-Brion’s style. On the palate, it is rich and concentrated, with velvety tannins, remarkable precision, and an exceptionally long, harmonious finish.
The 2016 vintage is regarded as one of Bordeaux’s great modern years, combining structure, freshness, and ripe fruit in perfect balance. This Haut-Brion unites power with aristocratic finesse and promises extraordinary ageing potential.
Important: the designation CB1 means the wine is delivered in an original closed wooden case (Original Wooden Case) — ideal for collectors, cellaring, or luxury gifting.
