Among the legendary wines that can be found at the store is Chateau Haut-Brion. It is neatly stacked among the Imperials that occupy prime position at the wine store.
Château Haut-Brion, a wine rated a Premier Cru Classé from Graves, is the only wine of the five first growths with the Pessac-Leognan appellation. Haut-Brion also produces a red second wine, from the 2007 vintage renamed Le Clarence de Haut Brion in place of the former name Château Bahans Haut-Brion.
The name Château Bahans Haut-Brion had been in use for at least a century, and over a period it was sold without a declared vintage.
