In the mouth
The attack is smooth and welcoming, with broad, comfortable fruit expression. The wine then unfolds with wrapped, juicy tannins that carry freshness and structure. The finish is long and flavourful, with lingering dark fruit and subtle spice.
On the nose
Powerfully aromatic and impressively rich. Blackcurrant, plum, and dark cherry mingle with cedar, tobacco leaf, and mineral notes. The bouquet is generous and evolving, revealing layers with aeration.
On the eye
Deep garnet with violet reflections; a colour that speaks to concentration and maturity potential.
La Mission Haut-Brion is an essential acquisition for any serious cellar. The consistency of this Grand Cru Classé, vintage after vintage, makes it a benchmark for Graves. Whether you are building a collection or seeking a wine of genuine substance and ageing potential, this is a house I have trusted and recommended throughout my merchant career. A wine that repays patience and cellaring discipline.
