CHÂTEAU LA MISSION HAUT BRION 2005

Château La Mission Haut Brion 2005 is a very great wine. Made from several grape varieties such as Merlot (69%), Cabernet Sauvignon (30%) and Cabernet Franc (1%), the wine has a rather dark color. On the nose, we quickly analyze the scents of forest fruits, earth and smoke. On the palate, a creamy texture, intense tannins that are balanced with the freshness of the wine. This grand cru can be enjoyed now or kept for years to come.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
 The 2005 La Mission Haut-Brion is pure perfection. It has an absolutely extraordinary nose of sweet blackberries, cassis and spring flowers with some underlying minerality, a full-bodied mouthfeel, gorgeously velvety tannins (which is unusual in this vintage) and a long, textured, multi-layered finish that must last 50+ seconds. This is a fabulous wine and a great effort from this hallowed terroir. Drink this modern-day legend over the next 30+ years. Only 5,500 cases were produced of this blend of 69% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc.

An impressive wine that combines aromas and body in a breathtaking balance. It begins with a great smoky nose. On the palate, the great Mission Haut Brion wines immediately shine through their attack. Then the richness and velvet are unprecedented. And the wine melts in the mouth, smooth and complete with fine tannins and remarkable length. A delicious ensemble with great aging potential, very difficult to spit out!

Château La Mission Haut Brion
Château La Mission Haut Brion

Château la Mission Haut-Brion is a wine estate located in Talence, Gironde. Situated in the Pessac-Léognan AOC, it is classified as a grand cru in the Graves wine classification. The estate was purchased in 1983 by the Dillon family, owners of Haut Brion. It is undoubtedly this propensity to give everything at once that distinguishes the wines of La Mission Haut-Brion and attracts many tasters. It is also the heightened expression of the Graves de Pessac terroir. Throughout its aging process and as it matures, Mission Haut-Brion is always generous, constantly revealing itself fully. The hedonistic side of Mission Haut-Brion and the consistency of these qualities are particularities that make it very appealing. La Chapelle de la Mission Haut Brion is the estate's second wine.

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.
