1996

Chateau Haut Brion is a prestigious winery located in the Pessac-Leognan region of Bordeaux, France. With a history dating back to the 16th century, it is known for producing some of the finest wines in the world.

The Haut Brion Pessac Leognan 1996 is a classic Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. This vintage is elegant and refined, with aromas of black cherry, tobacco, and cedar. On the palate, it has a velvety texture, with flavors of cassis, plum, and spice. The wine has a long, smooth finish with well-integrated tannins. It is drinking beautifully now, but will continue to evolve and improve with age.
