Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru 2019

100
/100

48,7 procent Merlot, 43,2 procent Cabernet Sauvignon og 8,1 procent Cabernet Franc. Alkoholindholdet er 14,6 volumenprocent. Forskellen mellem Haut-Brion og La Mission Haut-Brion løber som en rød tråd. Det oplevede vi med andenvinen og nu også med førstevinen. Haut-Brion er meget mere frugtagtig, meget mere intens og mere overdådig i næsen. Den sorte frugt er simpelthen rigere. Ikke bedre, bare rigere, tættere og mere kraftfuld. Sorte kirsebær, røg, lidt bacon. Masser af cassis og brombær, men helt modne, ikke sprøde. Stor friskhed og smag i munden. Lang uden ende. Men også her er alt modent, intet grønt. Og alligevel helt legende og frisk. Ikke så ultrafin som La Mission Haut-Brion, som simpelthen er en af årgangens bedste vine. Haut-Brion er mere i harmoni med sig selv, men det er stadig en af de bedste vine i Haut-Brion-serien. Så aromatisk, elegant og fin. Fantastisk vin! 100/100

Suckling om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

The black cassis comes out of the glass, together with iodine, sandalwood and subtle moss and wet-bark undertones, then turning to violets. The palate is mind-blowing, with a cashmere texture that unravels on the palate and continues on for minutes. It’s full of superbly complex, ethereal character and mouth-feel, One of the wines of the vintage. As glorious as it may be to taste now, this is one for your deep cellar. Try in 2029. 100/100

Lisa Perrotti Brown om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

Composed of 48.7% Merlot, 43.2% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 8.1% Cabernet Franc, the 2019 Haut-Brion is deep garnet-purple in color. It waltzes out with flamboyant scents of wilted roses, star anise, mossy tree bark, and kirsch, leading to a core of blackcurrant pastille and stewed black plums. The full-bodied palate has a rock-solid structure of firm, grainy tannins and lively acidity supporting the densely packed, muscular black fruit, finishing incredibly long and with a spicy lift. Give it 5-6 more years in bottle to really hit its stride and drink it over the next 40-years+. 100/100

Galloni om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

The 2019 Haut-Brion has an ethereal degree of transparency on the nose, perhaps the most delineated of all the 2019s, fabulous precision and detail considering the growing season. The palate is medium-bodied with fine bone tannins, unerring symmetry and poise. Cohesive from start to finish with an extraordinarily persistent and compelling closing. Off the charts. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting. 99+/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

Compared to the La Mission Haut-Brion, the 2019 Château Haut-Brion is more backward and mineral-laced, with a dense purple color as well as notes of blueberry liqueur, black cherries, new leather, scorched earth, graphite, camphor, liquid rock-like minerality, and an almost Hermitage-like burning embers character. It doesn't have the overt power of Mouton, nor the sexiness of Château Margaux, yet it builds slowly and incrementally, with flawless balance, full-bodied richness, ultra-fine tannins, and a magical finish. My money is on this being one of the all-time greats from this address, in the same league as the 2009, 2010, 2015, 2016, and 2018. It will need a solid decade of cellaring and have 40-50+ years of prime drinking. 98-100/100

Parker om: Chateau Haut Brion 1er Cru

Wafting from the glass with aromas of blackberries and plums mingled with notions of pencil shavings, burning embers and creamy new oak, the 2019 Haut-Brion is full-bodied, rich and fleshy, with a textural attack that segues into an ample and enveloping core of fruit, concluding with a long, expansive finish. Broad-shouldered and muscular, its rich, powdery tannins are already seamlessly integrated; and though it's labeled at 15% alcohol, far higher than the great vintages of yesteryear, it avoids any sense of over-ripeness. 98/100
