Description
With a generous elegance and subtle underbelly of power, this wine has good weight and balance, and a really decent freshness. The minerality of its commune really shines through and the earthy, grainy tannins are rewarding on the finish. It is a pleasant, tasty and attractive wine.

Pessac-Léognan
In 1986 a new communal district was created within Graves, based on the districts of Pessac and Léognan. Pessac-Léognan has the best soils of the region, very similar to those of the Médoc, although the depth of gravel is more variable, and contains all the classed growths of the region. Some of its great names, including Ch. Haut-Brion, even sit serenely and resolutely in Bordeaux's southern urban sprawl.
