The 2023 Château La Mission Haut-Brion masters the vintage with brilliance and asserts its presence! Rated 94-96/100 by Parker and RVF, and even 96+/100 by Olivier Poussier, it is undeniably a great wine for aging, focused more on vitality than power, more on muscle than flesh.
Its substance and opulence, crafted around 53% Merlot and aged in two-thirds new barrels, set it apart from other Médoc wines. It boasts a more vinous and expansive mid-palate without being unbalanced. "I even have a slight preference for La Mission over Haut-Brion in its handling of the material," admits the Best Sommelier in the World!
The 2023 La Mission Haut-Brion asserts itself with authority and remains a holy grail for great connoisseurs. |
