Medium to full-bodied with a structuring core of fruit, it?s seamless and vibrant with a long, penetrating finish. Keep it over the next decade. - Yohan Castaing\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDecanter: 92 Points\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eDark chocolate and red cherries on the nose, so aromatic, rich and seductive. Joyful and lifted on the palate, strawberries and plums to the fore but creamy and chalky with such a sappy, agile and lively energy. Lightly framed so you get the aerial expansion of flavour but the texture that grips is chalky and mineral giving a welcome salinity and touch of tobacco and smoke that lands on the tongue. Beautifully presented, smooth and well defined, such succulence and density with no let up through the palate. Intensity, clarity and focus. An excellent second wine in 2021. - Georgina Hindle\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eJeb Dunnuck: 90-92 Points\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eVinous: 90-92 Points\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe 2021 Le Clarence de Haut-Brion has a very pure bouquet of blueberry, cedar and violet, perhaps slightly more ethereal than the La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion. The palate is medium-bodied with quite strict tannins and a little more saline than expected, leading to a fresh finish. Maybe it lacks a bit of persistence, but it is a fine Deuxi?me Vin. - Neal Martin\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eJames Suckling\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eLots of iodine and oyster-shell aromas, together with blackberry and black cherry, following through to a medium to full body. Polished yet slightly chewy tannins and a fresh finish. Grilled orange. 70.4% merlot, 18.2% cabernet sauvignon and 11.4% cabernet franc.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eProducer\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eLe Clarence de Haut Brion \u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e France \u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eRegion\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e Bordeaux \u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eSubregion\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003ePessac-Leognan\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eVarietal\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e Bordeaux Blend \u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eVintage\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e2021\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eSku\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e20658\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e ","brand":"Grapes The Wine Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52612910219631,"sku":"20658","price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.grapesthewineco.com\/products\/le-clarence-de-haut-brion-pessac-leognan-2021-750ml","provider":"Grapes The Wine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
