Château La Mission Haut-Brion lies just across the roadt from First Growth Haut-Brion, in the outskirts of Bordeaux.Both properties share the ownership and investment of Domaine Clarence Dillon. Their wines exude opulence and a sense of chic.
"Jet ruby in colour, this is rich in black fruit, cherries and berries on both the nose and palate, opulence given drive through a persistent mineral focus. La Mission Haut-Brion is stellar, too often in the shade of neighbouring Haut-Brion. Gorgeous wine through to a prolonged, complex finish."
