The 1996 Château Haut-Brion is a benchmark vintage from Bordeaux’s legendary First Growth estate. As the oldest of the five Premier Grand Cru Classé properties, Haut-Brion is revered for its refinement, balance, and age-worthy complexity.

The 1996 vintage in Bordeaux was exceptional, producing wines with remarkable structure and longevity. This Haut-Brion offers profound aromas of cassis, black cherry, graphite, and tobacco, layered with hints of cedar, leather, and earthy spice. The palate is powerful yet polished, with firm tannins, vibrant acidity, and a persistent, elegant finish.

Now entering its prime drinking window, the 1996 Haut-Brion stands as both a collector’s treasure and a rare opportunity to enjoy one of the estate’s great vintages.
