The 2006 Château Haut-Brion is a distinguished First Growth from Pessac-Léognan, showing blackcurrant, blackberry and plum with cedar, tobacco, graphite, dried herbs and earthy notes developed through bottle age.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and finely structured, with balanced acidity, refined tannins and layers of dark fruit, savoury spice and subtle oak. Bottle development brings added complexity and depth, leading to a long, dry and persistent finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional choice for Bordeaux collectors seeking mature First Growth with depth, finesse and developed character. Enjoy now or cellar through 2035. Pair with roast venison, beef fillet with truffle jus, lamb loin with rosemary or duck with wild mushrooms.
