La Clarte De Haut Brion Blanc 算是 ChateauHaut-Brion（奧比昂又稱紅顏容）白酒和 Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion（修道院奧比昂）白的共同副牌，享受著正牌酒同一片風土，採用同樣的葡萄培育方法以及一樣的釀酒設備和技術，且由同樣的釀酒團隊打造，既有著與正牌酒相似的風格，也有著出眾的好品質，可以說是正牌酒的縮影。

這款副牌酒其實自1990 年起一直存在，但它原名為 Les Plantiers du Haut-Brion。從 2009 年份起，酒莊賦予其全新的名字La Clartede Haut-Brion。

Chateau Haut-Brion 位於波爾多 Graves 的 Pessac-Leognan 產區，是1855分級（1855 Classification）中唯一一個位於 Medoc 地區之外的酒莊，且高居一級莊之列。此外，該酒莊也被評為Crus Classes de Graves，其生產的紅、白葡萄酒位列波爾多頂級葡萄酒名單。

作為法國葡萄酒界金字塔尖的頂級名莊之一，Chateau Haut-Brion 從不缺乏讚美和追捧，單是Robert Parker Team 就曾先後共計8 次給予其酒款滿分好評。在近十年倫敦國際葡萄酒交易所（Liv-ex）揭曉的“Power 100”品牌排名榜單中，Chateau Haut-Brion 多年雄踞榜單前十。

Chateau Haut-Brion 內目前擁有葡萄園共計 51 公頃，其中紅葡萄占 48 公頃，表層土壤為砂礫石土，次層土壤為砂質粘土型土壤。種植葡萄比例為 45% Cabernet Sauvignon，40% Merlot，15% Cabernet Franc，釀造正牌酒 Chateau Haut-Brion 和副牌酒 Le Clarence de Haut -Brion。葡萄樹平均樹齡為35年。另有 3 公頃種植白葡萄 Semillon和 Sauvignon Blanc 兩種，年產量只得1000箱，十分稀少，釀造波爾多最頂尖的白葡萄酒 Chateau Haut-Brion Blanc。Chateau Haut-Brion Blanc 無論價格還是品質除是波爾多白酒頂級列, 也是世界最頂尖之一。

TASTING NOTES:

Pale-yellow colour. The initial impression on the nose is relatively intense.Swirling in the glass reveals subtle aromas characteristic of Sauvignon Blanc,accompanied by hints of aniseed and spice. Starts out delicate and aromatic on the palate,becoming rich and full-bodied with wonderful acidity.Notes of white flowers follow through to the finish. A superb wine best enjoyed young.

Lots of minerals and stones here. Full-bodied with phenolic tension and lime, lemon and chalk flavors. Layered and joyous. Just the right lees stirring.

The 2015 La Clarté de Haut-Brion is a very pretty entry-level white fromHaut-Brion. A hint of reduction adds nuance to the bright lemon peel,white flower, mint and crushed rock nuances. Understated and classy, withterrific energy, the 2015 has turned out very nicely. Even though the blendis 73% Sémillon and just 27% Sauvignon, the Sauvignon character is quitepronounced.

This is effectively a combined second wine of Chateau Haut-Brion Blanc and La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc, which prior to 2009 was known as Les Plantiers du Haut-Brion. A blend of 27% Sauvignon Blanc and 73% Semillon and redolent of ripe peaches, pink grapefruit and baking bread with touches of orange blossoms and crushed stones, the intense, satiny textured 2015 La Clarté de Haut-Brion Blanc offers up a lively palate laced with mineral accents and finishing with impressive persistence.
