February 10, 2016 - Pale straw with a deep lustre.
Squeaky clean, focussed, gooseberry fruit with a hint of lemon. Fragrant and floral, more passionfruit than grass.
Lots of zip, nice and crisp, passionfruit and gooseberry styled Sauvignon with an undercurrent of lemon/lime. Only very mild grassy characters, a plus for me. Excellent structure. -

August 15, 2015 - Wonderful nose. One of the nicest white bordeaux I heave smelt. Enchanting pinapple, and tropical fruits. Palate is great too but does just quite live up to the promise of the nose. Really fulfilling and long too.

May 20, 2014 - Grapefruit, cantaloupe and honeysuckle aromas open to a medium/full bodied, sweet citrus peel character that will drink well young, as well as offer aging possibilities.

April 25, 2012 - La Clarte de Haut Brion is now the second wine from Haut Brion Blanc and La Mission Haut Brion Blanc. Blending 78% Semillon and 22% Sauvignon Blanc with 13.8% alcohol produced a wine that is fresh, bright and filled with grapefruit and vanilla with a long, zesty lemon wax finish. 90-92 Pts
