The 2019 Haut-Brion Blanc simply has it all; energy, texture and striking aromatics all race across the palate. I would be in no rush to open the 2019, as it needs time. Today, it is the wine's pure richness and depth that are so impressive. Hints of orchard fruit, white pepper, slate, lemon confit, dried flowers and chamomile build over time. The 2019 is a glorious wine. That's pretty much all there is to it. -- Antonio Galloni

A bit reticent but with clear pedigree, as there's a seamless feel to the fleur de sel, white peach, talc, Key lime and verbena notes that stretch out slowly but surely, picking up subtle brioche, lime curd and quinine accents through a very long and pinpoint finish. Very impressive for the vintage. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Best from 2024 through 2035.—J.M.

The 2019 Haut-Brion Blanc is richer and rounder than its stablemate across the street, bursting with aromas of peaches, citrus zest, ripe orchard fruit, pastry cream and white flowers. Full-bodied, broad and textural, it's ample and enveloping, with a demonstrative core of fruit, lively acids and a long, saline finish.
