1982 Château Bahans Haut-Brion | Graves Bordeaux | 750ml

The 1982 Château Bahans Haut-Brion Graves Bordeaux is a rare mature wine connected to one of Bordeaux’s most prestigious estates, Château Haut-Brion. Bahans Haut-Brion, now known as Le Clarence de Haut-Brion, represents the estate’s elegant second wine and offers classic Graves character with depth, refinement, and historic appeal.

The 1982 vintage is one of Bordeaux’s most celebrated years, making this bottle especially attractive for collectors, anniversary gifting, birth-year celebrations, and mature Bordeaux enthusiasts.

The palate is mature and refined, showing softened tannins, savory earth, red and black fruit, mineral depth, polished oak, and classic Bordeaux elegance. The finish is long, smooth, and complex with lingering cedar, tobacco, spice, leather, smoke, and dried fruit.

The 1982 Château Bahans Haut-Brion 750ml is ideal for Bordeaux collectors, vintage wine lovers, birth-year gifting, anniversaries, private cellars, and fine dining. Its connection to Haut-Brion, mature character, and 1982 vintage pedigree make it a standout bottle for serious collectors.
