Descrizione

Lunga conservazione e un'annata spettacolare per un vino leggendario, che ha preso sette volte 100 punti Parker. Con un profilo più denso e opulento rispetto al suo vicino Haut Brion, La Mission Haut Brion è un vino mitico, molto apprezzato dagli intenditori. Le note affumicate tipiche del suo terroir e un'eleganza estrema sono i suoi tratti distintivi in ogni annata. Molto ricercato dai collezionisti, l'annata 2000, per esempio, viene venduta a circa 6.000 euro sul mercato.

Recensioni degli esperti

Falstaff:

Deep dark ruby in colour with an opaque core, purple reflections, and subtle brightening on the rim. A compact nose of dark fruits of the forest, black cherry, some cassis, candied orange zest and some nougat, with hints of sweet tobacco. The palate is full-bodied, elegant and finely structured, with pleasant ripe cherry fruit, ripe tannins, and minerality, already very well developed, could be enjoyed straight away, but will continue to improve, even if it is difficult to be patient. (1/2025, PM).

James Suckling:

Showing blackcurrants, crushed stones and flint undertones, this is full-bodied and very tight with great length and precision, both refined and rather timid at this stage. The strong tannins come out at the end, muscular and beautifully formed, giving tension and power. This needs lots of time to soften. Best after 2030.

The Wine Advocate:

Less muscular and more approachable than it appeared en primeur, the 2022 La Mission Haut-Brion has turned out beautifully in bottle. Unfurling with aromas of spices, smoke, dark berries, pencil lead and licorice mingled with delicate floral top-notes, it's full-bodied, deep and concentrated with a velvety attack that segues into an elegantly structured and energetic mid-palate that's nicely framed by sweet but abundant tannins, concluding with a long, penetrating and perfumed finish. It's a blend of 51.7% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43.2% Merlot and 5.1% Cabernet Franc.
