Château Haut-Beauséjour 2003 Red (Saint-Estèphe)
- $25
Boasts layers of wood, with black currant and rich white fig flavors, along with dried fruits. This is a ripe, opulent wine reflecting the heat of 2003 in Bordeaux, but still retaining dry tannins that promise aging.

Château Haut-Beauséjour 1996 Cru Bourgeois Red (Saint-Estèphe)
- $25
Deeper and more powerful than the ’95, with robust black currant, coffee, and cedar aromas and flavors. Rich, nicely balanced mouthfeel and a long, full finish with plenty of tannins. Hold for three to five years, or drink with very hearty fare.

Château Haut-Beauséjour 2006 Red (Saint-Estèphe)
- Online Exclusive
Three elements, already in balance, contribute to the success of this wine. First, the rich fruit, juicy blackberry and mulberry, lifted by acidity. Second, the new wood, which spices the fruit but is already smoothing out the third element, the dark firm tannic layer.

Château Haut-Beauséjour 2004 Red (Saint-Estèphe)
- $25
A lusciously rich wine whose opulence is tempered by some firm, dry tannins as well as crisp acidity. The superripe plum and blackberry fruits are open, generous and demanding to be drunk in the next 2–3 years.

Château Haut-Beauséjour 1995 Red (Saint-Estèphe)
- $25
A plump and full wine with forest, cedar, cocoa and black fruit aromas. Handsome fruit with earth, plum and carob elements on the palate. Earthy finish of medium length, with some drying tannins. Already drinkable, it should shine even more in two years.
— W.E.

Château Haut-Beauséjour 1997 Cru Bourgeois Red (Saint-Estèphe)
- $23
A much less dense wine than either ’95 or ’96, reflecting the vintage. Red berry fruit aromas with dusty tobacco notes. Lighter, juicy mouthfeel with chocolate and leather notes. Mildly drying finish. Well-made but light, with a definite herbaceous quality.
— W.E.
