Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate January - 2012
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Even though this bottle is showing a little volatility on the nose, one can still discern a magnificent La Mission. It has an intense, exuberant bouquet of blackberry, dusty attic, cedar and cigar box with smoke and burning embers developing in the glass. The palate is nicely balanced, more sedate than I recall previous bottles with a slight bitterness towards the finish. It has impressive weight and vigor, imbued with the classicism of the vintage.

Gorgeous cedar and haunting Sandalwood character, and though a touch of green pepper suggests a tiny under ripeness, this just has fresh personality and appeal. On the palate there is real juiciness, which married to plenty of spicy, warming oak, tight and racy tannins and a crisp acidity, is classically austere, and very appealing indeed.

Medium ruby red with a delicate brick-red undertone. Fine aromas of dark berries, a touch of leather. Very harmonious on the palate, red berries, fine sweetness, well-integrated acidity, lively, still with great potential, soft and silky, magnificent structure.

The color is dark, of medium and evolved intensity. The wine presents itself as aromatic and very fruity. The palate is rounded and rich. The wine glides throughout the tasting and finishes long and meticulous in its refined tannic texture. Very good length.

Château La Mission Haut Brion

Château La Mission Haut-Brion is one of the most emblematic estates of Pessac-Léognan, recognized for the depth, longevity and singularity of its red and white wines. Classified as Cru Classé de Graves, the château shares with its illustrious neighbor Château Haut-Brion an ancient history and an exceptional terroir, while asserting its own stylistic identity, often described as more powerful and more earthy.

Planted on deep gravel soils mixed with clays and sands, the vineyard benefits from a grape variety dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot for the reds, complemented by Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc for the whites. This diversity allows for precise blends, giving birth to wines of great aromatic intensity, structured, but always balanced.

Since its integration into the Dillon family, La Mission Haut-Brion has undergone an exemplary modernization of its facilities while maintaining a respectful approach to the terroir. Vinifications are conducted with great precision, aiming to preserve the expression of the soil and the purity of the fruit.

Major vintages such as Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1947, Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1949, Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1955, Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1982, Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1989, Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1990, Château La Mission Haut-Brion 2000, Château La Mission Haut-Brion 2010, illustrate the estate's capacity to produce exceptional wines for aging, sought after on the great collection wines market and recognized for their remarkable evolution over the decades.
