The estate and the wine |
|
|
La Mission Haut-Brion faces Château Haut-Brion in the heart of Pessac-Léognan. The two myths share the same terroir and the same winemaking teams. While Haut-Brion sometimes displays greater stylistic complexity with age, the sensuality of the Mission wines gives it a superiority in younger years recognized by the majority of critics.
In the 2015 vintage, "Mission" is an unforgettable bottle! It is already one of the great legends of the vintage, and Winespectator's verdict is clear: 100/100! |
