Château Haut-Lalande

Château Haut-Lalande sits in Blaye, the northernmost appellation of Bordeaux's right bank. The region's clay and limestone soils yield structured red blends rooted in Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot—the classic Bordeaux trio. The winery's flagship Blaye - Côtes de Bordeaux marries the power of Cabernet Sauvignon with the textural grace of Franc and the roundness of Merlot, a profile typical of the appellation's best expressions. Wine Enthusiast has rated the wine at 89.5 points. Blaye - Côtes de Bordeaux remains one of Bordeaux's less heralded yet capable sources for age-worthy reds, where limestone-driven minerality and moderate alcohol create wines of balance rather than extraction.
