PESSAC LEOGNAN
The appellation was only created in 1987 having been changed from what was known as Graves. Its most famous wine, Château Haut-Brion is a first growth and one of Bordeaux's most noble wines. The wines are generally not as full bodied as the other Médocs, though made with more or less the same blends, however, they are similar in weight to those of Margaux. Much of the production here is of white wine - very uncommon in Bordeaux. Other famous estates are La Mission Haut Brion, Pape Clément and Domaine de Chevalier.
