Château Haut-Brion Blanc
When we talk about the white wine of Château Haut-Brion, the first words that come to mind are uniqueness, excellence and richness. Château Haut-Brion white is an icon in the world of exceptional white wines. Bordeaux, too, can produce great white wines!
The weather
A warm spring brought on early budding. Through June, the weather was very good. The flowering was uniform. After a bout of cold weather August was pretty warm. August makes the must is a local adage. The grapes were remarkably healthy and ripened well. The rainy weather with one or two storms did not affect them at all.
