Chateau La Mission Haut Brion Pessac Leognan 2021 (750ml) and smooth with a grain-forwardDark berries, cassis and crushed plums weave through a finely tuned palate of savoury earth, cigar box and sweet spice. Medium bodied but deeply concentrated, the 2021 vintage brings bright acids, supple tannins and refined texture. A serious, quietly composed La Mission, it promises to unfold slowly, revealing more layers of complexity with each passing year.
