Jancis Robinson May - 2019

Magnum. Tasted blind to celebrate a 55th birthday. Thick and sweet start but then it dried out a little on the end. Impressive perfume, however, that had a suggestion of tobacco leaf about it. Dense. From another, more concentrated and determinedly tannic era.

The 1964 La Mission Haut-Brion continues to drink very well, offering up an expressive bouquet of dark berry fruit, camphor, smoked meats, loamy soil and cigar ash. Medium-bodied, supple and melting, it's a suave, seamless La Mission that's open-knit and charming. While it's fully mature, at least from my cellar in France it shows no sign of decline—testimony to the extraordinary longevity of this estate's wines under the Wolnter brothers' proprietorship.

Tasted double decanted. The color is evolved, the nose is moderately aromatic, fruity and presents notes of humidity. The palate is rather melted and rounded with flavor. Once again, an acceleration of flavor occurs between the mid-palate and the finish. And the wine finishes long, but a touch dry, which lowers the score. It can be drunk and kept.

A very solid bottle of this wine served up smoky, licorice, blackberry and earthy tasting experience that alternated between red and black flavors. Medium bodied and fully mature, there is no good reason to age this wine any longer.

Wine Spectator November - 1991
Wine Spectator
A surprisingly rich, round, delicious wine from an overlooked vintage. Medium ruby, with a garnet edge, ripe, perfumed raspberry aromas, full-bodied, with raspberry and earth flavors, medium-full tannins and a rich, sweet finish.

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.
