"The 2021 La Clarté de Haut-Brion is a bright, tense dry white that encapsulates the style of the year quite nicely. Lemon peel, white pepper, mint, crushed rocks, slate and light tropical notes all race across the palate in this taut, nervy edition of La Clarté. As a reminder, La Clarté is a blend of fruit from Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion." -Antonio Galloni

"The 2021 La Clarté de Haut-Brion offers up a floral, lively bouquet with aromas of lemon, white flowers, herbs and menthol, followed by a medium to full-bodied, tense and precise palate that segues into a saline, fresh and penetrating finish. This is a blend of 55% Sémillon and 45% Sauvignon Blanc." -Yohan Castaing

"Expressive nose full of green apple, elderflower, honeysuckle, acacia, citrus zest and grapefruit. Lively and upfront, a rush of almost sweet but fresh lemon, peach and apple fruits, crunchy but with a lovely texture that gives a sense of weight on the palate. Full of life with direction and precision, a mouthwatering sensation as well as a full one. Great stuff here, so much character as well as purity of fruit and overall harmony. One worth seeking out." -Georgina Hindle
