Château Haut-Brion 2009 Pessac-Léognan

Country: France / Bordeaux
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
Winery: Château Haut-Brion /

Solid, very structured, packed with dense and dry tannins. There is a core of acidity and darkness that gives the wine a brooding, powerful character. At this stage, it seems austere although it does have the weight of fruit typical of the year.
