Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru 2010

100
/100

Lobenberg: 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc. Uigennemsigtig sort farve. Der var en betydeligt lavere andel af Merlot til fordel for den tredje vin for ikke at drive alkoholen yderligere op. Udbyttet er mellem 35 og 40 hl/ha. Enorm sort frugt, næsten ren brombær, med rige blåbærundertoner. Grillet kød, ikke helt så meget i retning af race med solbær som La Mission. Mere fyldig her, minder stærkt om Allary Haut Brion, naboen, som var en del af Haut Brion indtil 2008. Meget sød, men aldrig klæbrig eller syltetøjsagtig. Vidunderlig vanilje fra træet trænger igennem. Derefter frisk blomme, mørk chokolade, et strejf af jordbærmarmelade, men stadig frisk. Lignende sort frugt i smagen, sorte kirsebær, brombær, skarp syre, kraftfuld og raffineret på samme tid. Ikke helt så kompleks som den skøre La Mission, men meget imponerende. Og stor! Fantastisk sjov. 100/100

Parker om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

As for the 2010 Haut-Brion, it does not have the power of Latour’s 2010 or the intense lead pencil shavings and chocolaty component of Lafite-Rothschild, but it is extraordinary, perfect wine. It has a slightly lower pH than the 2009 (3.7 versus the 2009's 3.8), and even higher alcohol than the 2009 (14.6%). The wine is ethereal. From its dense purple color to its incredibly subtle but striking aromatics that build incrementally, offering up a spectacular smorgasbord of aromas ranging from charcoal and camphor to black currant and blueberry liqueur and spring flowers, this wine’s finesse, elegant yet noble power and authority come through in a compelling fashion. It is full-bodied, but that’s only apparent in the aftertaste, as the wine seems to float across the palate with remarkable sweetness, harmony, and the integration of all its component parts – alcohol, tannin, acidity, wood, etc. This prodigious Haut-Brion is hard to compare to another vintage, at least right now, but it should have 50 to 75 years of aging potential. Anticipated maturity: 2022-2065+. 100/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

A benchmark for what constitutes a perfect wine, the 2010 Château Haut-Brion is absolute perfection in a glass, and you won't find a better wine. Sensationally complex aromatics of red and black currants, scorched earth, cold fireplace, smoke, tobacco, and subtle iron notes all define the bouquet. This carries to a full-bodied, deep, rich, incredibly powerful Haut-Brion that has building tannins, a seamless, layered mouthfeel, and a great finish. If I had to pick one wine to describe perfection in wine, this might be it. The 2010 is 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc, which came in at 14.5% alcohol with a pH of 3.83. Drink 2025-2100.

Jane Anson om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

Intense and concentrated blackberry and cassis fruits, with olive tapenade and sweet red liquorice. This is muscular and opulent, seriously structured but with beautiful black truffle and squid ink notes that I find more usually in vintages like 2010 or 2016 - a suggestion of truly ripe Cabernet Sauvignon. The generosity of the vintage comes through in cinnamon and cumin spice, overlaid with incense and crushed rose petals. Exceptional. 100% new oak for ageing, Jean-Philippe Delmas director.

Suckling om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

Licorice and sweet tobacco with beautiful fruit and a blackberry and blue berry undertone. Complex and breathtaking. Amazing depth and intensity yet fine. This is the biggest proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon ever. Full and velvety. Intense finish. Super and muscular. Yet polished. Better than ever. 99-100/100

Wine Spectator om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

Sappy, tongue-coating pastis, blackberry coulis and loganberry fruit starts this huge wine off, followed by a parade of licorice snap, violet, tar, black tea, roasted alder, wood spice and steeped black cherry fruit notes. A beam of pure cassis drives through this, and the finish pulls everything together with a mouthwatering brambly edge that should soften slowly over time. A riveting display of brawny power, unbridled energy and high-level terroir. Best from 2020 through 2040. 7,800 cases made. 99/100
