Château Haut-Bages Libéral is a Fifth Growth estate situated within the Pauillac appellation. It is a certified organic and biodynamic property, owned and run by Claire Villars-Lurton and her husband Gonzague Lurton. This release is their Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant Grand Vin, from organic and biodynamic certified vineyards. 1996 is considered one of the great vintages of the 20th century, known for its high quality and age-worthiness.
87 Jancis Robinson
This wine reveals an element of jammy black currant fruit intermixed with dried roasted herbs, sweet earthy smells, and new oak. It offers excellent definition, moderate tannin, medium to full body, and a long finish. As the wine sits in the glass, elements of the Cabernet Sauvignon's sur-maturite become noticeable. It is a potential sleeper, and possibly a realistic value because Haut-Bages-Liberal rarely sells for an excessive price. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2017.
