Château Bahans Haut Brion

Château Bahans Haut Brion is the second wine of Château Haut Brion. Bahans being the name of the castle and the family of former owners of a land now integrated into the vineyard of Haut Brion. A few years before the 75th anniversary of the acquisition of the estate by the family of Clarence Dillon, the owners decided to rename this Second Vin and to pack it in the same bottles as the great wine. Since the 2007 vintage, it is now called Le Clarence de Haut-Brion.

This 2004 vintage offers a remarkable complexity with aromas of ripe fruits, spices and tobacco, and a beautiful tannic structure. It embodies a more accessible expression of the domain while maintaining great elegance and notable aging potential.

Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate – Château Bahans Haut Brion 2004 rated 88/100.
