The 2022 WM BROWN Haut-Medoc is the realisation of Matt Hranek's lifelong passion for wine, brought to life through collaboration, and a deep appreciation for Bordeaux. Inspired from an early age by his father’s love of wine and his Italian heritage, Matt’s journey eventually led him to the Médoc, a region he and his family quickly fell in love with. A serendipitous meeting with Basile and Bérangère Tesseron of Château Larrivaux sparked not only a shared vision for winemaking but also a lasting friendship. Their expertise and guidance played a crucial role in shaping this wine, crafted from the finest plots from Château Larrivaux.
This Merlot-led blend is elegant yet approachable, offering rich layers of dark fruit, subtle spice, and earthy complexity. Ripe blackberry, cassis, and plum unfold on the palate, complemented by notes of cedar, tobacco, and graphite. Silky tannins and a well-integrated oak influence create a refined, lingering finish. Whether enjoyed now or aged further, this wine reflects the charm of the Médoc beyond its famed châteaux. Perfect with dry-aged steak, roasted lamb, or a fine cigar, it embodies tradition with a modern touch. Aujourd’hui, un rêve devient réalité. Today, a dream becomes reality.
Blend: 62% Merlot, 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot
Production: Limited to 5000 bottles
"Collaboration between WM Brown and Ch Larrivaux in Cissac Medoc, and it's honestly great to see Bordeaux estates doing smart collaborations and reaching out to a new audience. The blend here is a little more Merlot than the main Larrivaux wine, aimed at earlier drinking with supple tannins and a sense of joy, ready for sharing. A great vintage, with ripe brambled red fruits, aged in vats rather than barrels. Basile Tesseron owner, working with WM Brown owner Matt Hranek." Jane Anson, 93 Points
