Description

La Mission Haut Brion Pessac-Leognan 2021Wine Advocate 94 96 100 Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries and plums mingled with loamy soil, sweet spices, cigar box and licorice, the 2021 La Mission Haut Brion is full bodied, lively and seamless, with a deep, concentrated core of fruit framed by bright acids and supple, powdery tannins. This charming, sensual rendition of La Mission is a blend of 48% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Cabernet Franc, attaining 13. 4% alcohol.

The finish transforms from peppery and hot to deliciously sweet and smooth
