Le Clarence de Haut-Brion

Bursts from the glass with notions of baked black cherries, blackberry pie & plum preserves, leading to hints of ripe redcurrants, spice cake & smoked meats, plus a touch of hoisin. The big, rich, full-bodied palate is a full-on decadent mouthful featuring lovely freshness to lift all that rich black fruit and a velvety texture, finishing long & spicy. 60.1% Merlot, 31.7% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6.7% Cabernet Franc and 1.5% Petit Verdot
