Château Brion La Romaine

Olivia Brion

Heron Lake Vinyard Pinot Noir 2018

Beautiful Pinot with a nose full of cherries and fruit. At 7 years young this wine has some wonderful flavors of jam with a hint of smoke. Really nice wine! Enjoy!!! — 3 months ago

Château Haut-Brion

Le Clarence de Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Medium ruby pink rim, quite thin rim. More dense and darker on the nose than the Chapelle . Dark plum , blackberry , dark cherry , touch of spice again , quite dense , with a touch of spice on the medium length finish . Lacks the elegance of the Chapelle , a bit more tannic and bigger boned , less fresh perhaps , but a touch more mineral also . Needs more time , another 3-5 years and will show well for a further 5 -8. Again successful but the La Chapelle just comes out in front , though this will be longer lived . — 7 months ago

Had the ‘89 HB last weekend…based on your notes above, it was a bit more elegant, yet just as complex. A stunner on a table of worthy wines.

Les Demoiselles de Larrivet Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Really a Grand Vin de Bordeaux. You know that a flower was named after this wine? The Rose Demoiselles de Larrivet Haut Brion. How cool is that? — 7 years ago

Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2024

Dark cherries and cloves prevail on the nose, then you start to dig in into a very layered nose. Complex and broad spectrum.
On the mouth it is supple and creamy, mid palate is beautiful and rich. The closing is somewhat lifting and refreshing with rose and strawberry flavors overcoming the pleasant bitterness.
An excellent wine for the vintage.
It won’t be immediate. Bit it’ll be a nice surprise in the years to come.
95-97.

Very good. Maybe to young. Had some liquerish flavor at the end. But was drinking this next to a margaux.

Les hauts de Larrivet Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan White Bordeaux Blend 2018

A savory red blend from Pessac-Léognan, 70% Merlot and 30% Cab Sauv and since it is aged more than 50% of the Merlot on terracota amphorae the tannins are as silky and gentle as it can get. Velvety and fresh mouthfeel. Already started to pick its prime time. Drinking now or within the next 3 years will just as great! — 7 months ago

Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion

Le Clos Des Carmes Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

90+, very young! First time I had a Bordeaux with some saltiness in the taste. The nose stands out. An elegant fresh wine with stony minerality and very young fruit! Needs time… — 3 years ago

'Le C des Carmes' Red Bordeaux Blend 2024

Soft, fragrant and feminine on the nose. Raspberry and peppery. Elegant and beautifully simple. Not obvious. It crashes interesting notes on the finish which makes it cool. — 3 months ago

La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Quite bright medium ruby , ruby pink rim . Quite elegant and reserved , some red cherry, violet , summer fruits , scorched earth , touch of spice . On the palate quite elegant also , summer fruits, blackberry , blackcurrant , red plum . Good balanced acidity , herbal touches on the medium length , saline tinged finish . Quite polished but still grippy tannins . This is showing well , especially with food , but has a relatively long future , from now and over the next 5-10 years. A very successful second wine . — 7 months ago

Taquine White Chardonnay Blend 2023

What a nice surprise this was to come across! I guess the closest thing I could compare it to is a field blend from Alsace - a big mix of bouquets. Good weight, silky but a nice acidic backing. — 9 months ago
