Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate

(01-1998) After having consumed almost two cases of this wine, I am upset that I did not buy more 1987 La Mission-Haut-Brion. No, it is not a phenomenal wine, but it is consistently one of the most perfumed, seductive examples of the vintage. It has always been a classic example of La Mission, and of the exotic, tobacco, smoky, roasted herb character of a top-notch Graves. The wine is satiny smooth, with low acidity, lovely fresh, ripe black currant fruit, medium body and a round finish. It has continued to hold at its plateau of maturity, revealing no signs of cracking up.

Château informations

Mission Haut Brion

The Château La Mission Haut-Brion, is a vineyard located in Talence in Gironde. Located in AOC Pessac-Léognan, it is classified Grand Cru in the classification of wines of Graves. The estate was bought in 1983 by the Dillon family, owner of Haut Brion. It is undoubtedly this propensity to give everything at once that distinguishes the wines of La Mission Haut-Brion and seduces many tasters. It is also the exacerbated expression of the soil of Graves of Pessac. In the course of its breeding and getting older, the Mission Haut-Brion is always generous, it is committed totally permanently. The hedonistic side of the Mission Haut-Brion and the permanence of these qualities are features that make it very attractive. La Chapelle de la Mission Haut Brion is the second wine of the domain. The greatest vintages: 2000, 1994, 1993, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1986, 1985, 1982, 1981, 1979, 1978, 1975, 1964, 1961, 1959, 1955, 1953, 1952, 1950, 1949, 1948, 1947, 1945, 1929.
