If you can`t get hold of a bottle of Haut-Brion Blanc (let alone afford it) this is a very good second wine to replace it. Creamy, leesy and well balanced, this has notes of smoked lemons and grapefruit, piano wire acidity, subtle oak and sappy, refresing finish. 94 points

The La Clarté de Haut-Brion 2014 is a blend of 66% Sauvignon Blanc and 34% Sémillon, Jean-Philippe Delmas mentioning that he blended more of the former, two weeks prior to my visit. It has a straightforward bouquet with crisp grapefruit and melon scents, the Sauvignon Blanc more expressive at the moment. The palate is sharp and citric on the entry with a keen line of acidity, touches of pear coming through toward the finish. Fine. 88-90 points
