Tasting notes
Produced from 85% Sauvignon and the balance Semillon, the 2005 Haut-Bergey offers subtle aromas of wood smoke and gun flint accompanied by notes of honeysuckle, waxy lemon oil, fig, and melon. This complex, fleshy, fruit-forward, medium-bodied Pessac-Leognan can be enjoyed now and over the next decade.

(65% sauvignon blanc and 35% semillon) Bright, green-tinged yellow. Brisk aromas of lime skin, mint, chlorophyll and spring flowers. Juicy, spicy and intense, with vibrant citrus and mint flavors. There's plenty of density here (the wine is 14.5% alcohol), but today the wine dances on the palate. Finishes very long and spicy. This was still being stirred on its lees in April.

About the producer
Since Paul Garcin took over running this estate in 2014, it has become one of Pessac-Léognan’s most exciting addresses. Biodynamic and with a minimalist approach, Ch. Haut-Bergey makes pure and expressive wines that offer both great value and a taste of the modern Bordeaux.
