Chateau Haut Brion 2021

Graves
Topwein des Jahrgangs
Kurz zusammengefasst, das ist der Wein des Jahrganges! Das ist Winemaking in Perfektion. Ein Prozent weniger Alkohol als im Vorjahr und das mit dieser Dichte, dieser Power, Energie, Frische und Komplexität, völlig unglaublich. 50% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon und 12% Cabernet Franc sind die Basis. Doch was diese prozentualen Anteile am Gaumen anrichten, ist so multidimensional und konzentriert, dass man hier nur zuschlagen kann. Sie wissen ja, auch wenn Dinge im Leben ein klein wenig mehr als veranschlagt kosten, es tut nur einmal kurz weh. Die Freude danach ist umso größer.

WEINWISSER: "50 % Merlot, 38 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 12 % Cabernet Franc, 13,8 Vol.-%, 48 hl/ha. Dicht verwobenes Bouquet mit frisch gepflückter schwarzer Johannisbeere, Olivenpaste und dunklem Edelholz. Im zweiten Ansatz Sommertrüffel, Palisander und Burleytabak. Am komplexen Gaumen mit seidiger Textur, kakaoartigem Tannin, zarte Muskeln spürbar, ungemein tiefgründig mit perfekt geformtem Körper. Im konzentrierten Finale kleine schwarze Beeren, schwarze Johannisbeerpastillen und erhabene Adstringenz mit ganz kleinen (körnigen) Ecken. Perfekt dem Jahrgang angepasst, erinnert (wegen des tieferen Alkohols) an 1990 mit mehr Präzision im Weinberg, ganz klar Klassenprimus aus Pessac!"

JAMES SUCKLING: "A very structured young Haut-Brion with blackberry, blackcurrant, black-olive and mushroom character. Medium to full-bodied with a driving balance of firm and ripe tannins and gorgeous fruit. 50.3% merlot, 38% cabernet sauvignon and 11.7% cabernet franc."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "A candidate for the title of wine of the vintage, the 2021 Haut-Brion unwinds in the glass with aromas of rich red and black fruit mingled with notions of cigar wrapper, licorice, black truffles, loamy soil and burning embers. Full-bodied, deep and concentrated, it's elegant and multidimensional, with superb depth at the core, lively acids and ultra-refined tannins. Combining the classical proportions of the vintages of two decades ago with the viticultural and winemaking of today, it's a timeless classic in the making, but it's difficult to find an obvious analogy with an older vintage. When pressed, Jean-Philippe Delmas suggests a superior version of the 2014 vintage, and to me, a more concentrated, serious version of the 2012 vintage also comes to mind. What is clear, however, is that this is one of the real high points of 2021. The blend is 50% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Cabernet Franc, and it attained 13.8% alcohol—a percentage point or so lower than in 2020 or 2019."

DECANTER: "One of the absolute stand out wines on 2021 with an electric appeal almost unrivalled in the vintage. Blackcurrant leaf, dark chocolate, cocoa powder, rose petals, sweet cherries and bramble fruits on the nose. Incredibly lively and energetic on the palate with a burst of sharp, sweet and sour fruits that just fills the mouth coated by chalk, slate and pencil lead mineral tannins that give a intensity while the fruit persistency lingers above and through to the long finish. Such delicacy yet multi-layered and full of concentration, clear ripeness and power, though delivered with suaveness and style. Tannins are firm and robust, mouthfilling, no doubt about that, but they give the structure and frame to the plush and plump fruit which also has such a crystalline purity to it. I love the intensity and also these spicy bitter dark chocolate and liquorice elements on the finish which give nuance."

JEB DUNNUCK: "As with the Clarence, the 2021 Château Haut-Brion is a darker, richer, more powerful wine. Currants, smoked black cherries, graphite, chocolate, and tobacco notes all define the nose, and it's medium to full-bodied, with a straight, focused, beautifully precise mouthfeel, gorgeous yet substantial tannins, and a great finish. It's going to hit maturity in 7-8 years and have 30 years of longevity or more. The 2021 is mostly Merlot, checking in as 50.3% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 11.7% Cabernet Franc, hitting 13.8% alcohol and resting in 73% new French oak."

FALSTAFF: "Dunkles Rubingranat, tiefer Farbkern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Einladender Duft nach feinem Cassis und schwarzen Kirschen, ein Hauch von Edelholz, zarter Nougatanklang. Gute Komplexität, dunkle Waldbeeren, feine Fruchtsüße, reife, gut integrierte Tannine, elegant und mit guter Länge ausgestattet, finessenreich und frisch, sehr zugänglich, ein toller Speisenbegleiter."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Flowers, tobacco wrapper, chocolate, burning wood, ash, cigar box, currants, black cherries, and spice. On the palate, the wine is fresh, bright, vibrant, lifted, and floral. The wine is elevated, refined, soft, and silky with a refreshing, silky edge to the fruits in the finish. There is richness and waves of fruit on the palate, but the waves are small and continuous. This is a good example of a modern classic Haut-Brion. The wine blends 50% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Cabernet Franc, 13.85% ABV. Harvesting took place September 13, finishing October 8, making this one of the longest harvest periods for Haut Brion. 48 hectoliters per hectare, with 43% of the harvest placed into the Grand Vin. Drink from 2027-2060."

WINE ENTHUSIAST: "95–97. Barrel Sample. This wine is rich with structure and serious intent. The black fruits are spicy, backed by solid tannins and powerful berry flavors and structure. Here is an impressive wine—dense and complex."

VINUM: "Von ausgesuchter, schierer Rasse und Frische, sehr zurückhaltend, schnörkellos, gleichsam pfeffriges Tannin und ausgeprägte Säure, ungemein lang; so mögen wir diesen Wein."

JANCIS ROBINSON: "50.3% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11.7% Cabernet Franc. 48 hl/ha. Cask sample. Bright crimson-purple. Fragrant berry-fruit notes as the wine opens. Smooth and refined on attack, the mid palate full and generous swathing powerful but integrated tannins. Impressive length and drive. Quite a powerhouse for such a complicated year. Huge potential. (JL)"

LISA PERROTTI-BROWN: "The 2021 Haut-Brion is a blend of 50% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 12% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple colored, it needs a lot of swirling and convincing to coax out notions of redcurrant jelly, raspberry coulis, blackcurrant pastilles, and graphite, plus suggestions of cloves, crushed rocks, and underbrush. Medium-bodied, the palate is a little like sucking on stones at this stage, chock full of minerals with emerging black and red fruits, framed by ripe, grainy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing long and earthy. A very different style and expression of Haut-Brion than in recent years, and yet this is equally evocative and simply gorgeous."
