Haut-Bages Liberal owns some of Pauillac's most enviable dirt: key plots sit right beside Chateau Latour and Pichon-Lalande, on the same deep gravel over limestone. Under Claire Villars-Lurton, who farms the estate organically and biodynamically, this fifth growth has become a purist, mineral-driven expression of great terroir. The 2022 is roughly 87% Cabernet Sauvignon from a hot, sun-drenched year that delivered ripe, concentrated fruit alongside surprising freshness and stony minerality. It is a young, structured wine that wants time. Cellar it, or decant generously if you can't wait.
