From the owners of Château Haut-Brion, this is a claret of truly 5-Star pedigree. Using grapes from their top-performing Saint-Émilion properties, not to mention their decades of Bordeaux expertise, it displays all the ripe generosity of the vintage.

American financier Clarence Dillon visited Bordeaux in 1934 and fell in love with world-famous Château Haut-Brion. The estate wasn’t then in peak form, but that didn’t put him off one iota. Certain it was the jewel of Bordeaux, he bought it and so started his family’s long commitment to the region and fine wine. In 1983 they purchased La Mission Haut-Brion, next door, and the family have since extended their portfolio to other areas of Bordeaux. Clarendelle is the initiative of Clarence Dillon’s great grandson, Prince Robert of Luxembourg. This is their expressive Saint-Émilion, using grapes from their impressive portfolio of properties, so as to express the best of a fine vintage. Only released when ready, this calls for a fine roast.
