【品鑒描述】

呈深寶石紅色澤，略微泛紫。散發出迷人的橙花芳香和濃郁的黑色水果（黑加侖、桑葚、車厘子、藍莓）香氣，展現出她迷人的一面。  入口後，單寧絲般柔滑，草莓果醬、石墨、丁香和肉桂的味道，  十分豐富。這款酒的濃度很高，但在酸度、甜度和酒精度之間  有一個很好的平衡，橡木味是很好的結合，有著非常輕的礦物質口感。  餘韻持久，口齒留香。

【Tasting Note】

James Suckling 95-96 points

This is a very powerful and structured Haut-Brisson, showing incredible depth and richness. Full-bodied and layered with incredible depth and purity. Layers of fruit and tannin. Best ever.

The deep, saturated purple/plum-coloured 2018 Château Haut Brisson checks in as a blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc from a 22-hectare vineyard of fine gravelly and quartz-rich soils sitting on top of deep clay. Still aging in 35% new French oak, this rich, medium to full-bodied Saint-Émilion offers a nicely layered and beautifully balanced style as well as complex notes of blue and black fruits, spice box, blood orange, and violets. It has an exotic edge, ample mid-palate depth, and the sexy yet pure style of the vintage. It’s a smoking good Saint-Émilion to drink any time over the coming two decades. Tasted twice.

The 2018 Haut Brisson is an absolutely gorgeous wine. Radiant and plush, with striking fruit density, the 2018 captures all the best the vintage has to offer. Dark cherry, plum, mocha, chocolate, dried flowers and menthol build in a creamy, sensual Saint-Émilion loaded with near and medium-term appeal. Haut Brisson is especially fine in 2018. The blend is 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, with new oak at 35%. Tasted three times.

One of the bigger St-Emilion wines this year, silky but concentrated with powerful and pure dark cassis fruit. It's juicy and intense, with good extraction giving chewy but well structured tannins. It has good ageing potential.

The 2018 Haut-Brisson comes from Vignonet and Monbousquet in Saint-Étienne-de-Lisse, from the lieu-dit Laroque. It is blended of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc and has 14.6% alcohol. It is aging in 35% new, 35% one-year-old and 30% two-year-old barrels for an anticipated 18 months. It has a deep garnet-purple colour and comes charging out of the glass with baked black cherries, warm blueberries and preserved plums with touches of pencil shavings, kirsch and chargrilled meat plus a waft of Indian spices. Full-bodied, the generously fruited palate has a lovely plush texture and just enough freshness, finishing with a menthol lift.
