Château Haut-Brion 2001

Château Haut-Brion 2001 is a Premier Grand Cru Classé First Growth French red wine from the Pessac-Léognan appellation in Bordeaux, France. Renowned for its exceptional ageing potential and powerful structure, this vintage offers a complex aromatic profile featuring dark blackcurrant, blackberry, earth, tobacco, cedar, and graphite. The medium-to-full-bodied palate delivers smooth flavours of rich cassis, plum, integrated tannins, and oak-derived cocoa, balanced by a vibrant natural acidity. This highly rated Bordeaux blend concludes with a long, satisfying finish, making it an ideal pairing for classic roast lamb, roasted duck with cherry sauce, and mature cheddar cheese.
