Château Haut Brisson Description
The estate was bought in 2019 by Stéphane Schinazi, Bordeaux native entrepreneur and one of the inventors of the Internet of Things at the end of the 1990’s. It used to belong to Vignobles K owned by Peter Kwok.
The vineyard extends over four villages located in the Southern part of the Saint-Emilion appellation, which offers a rich diversity of soils and subsoils. The feature represents today an undeniable asset in the making of Château Haut-Brisson wines.
Our vineyard is composed of Merlot in great majority but also of Cabernet Franc, both varieties being typical of the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru appellation. The large proportion of Merlot in our blends is part of our wines DNA.
Vinous: 94 Points
The 2020 Haut-Brisson is every bit as captivating as it was in barrel. Succulent dark cherry fruit, plum, mocha, licorice, espresso and spice are beautifully amplified. Creamy and resonant, with terrific depth, Haut-Brisson is super-expressive today. It is a harmonious Saint-Émilion to drink over the next 15-20 years. Terrific.
Wine Advocate: 91 Points
Aromas of cherries, sweet blueberries, spices and licorice introduce the 2020 Haut-Brisson, a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy wine with a ripe core of fruit, lively acids and a long, saline finish.
