2016 Chateau La Mission Haut Brion, Pessac-Leognan, France

Complex, full-bodied, rich… Château La Mission Haut-Brion summons the most complimentary adjectives. The blend evolves according to the vintages but Château La Mission Haut-Brion retains its characteristics of great intensity.

Tasting note
Very intense, remarkable red-garnet color. The nose of this Mission Haut-Brion is impressive in its maturity, fruit, density and complexity. It is a concentrate of just the right maturity! The attack on the palate of this wine is generous, soft, broad. The wine builds in power without breaking, ample. The class, the sophisticated breed of tannins is evident. This Mission Haut-Brion 2016 is undoubtedly the most complete and charming made in a long time.

The climate
Despite a winter and spring marked by complicated climatic conditions – abundant rains and temperatures below seasonal averages – flowering took place with almost miraculous homogeneity. The great drought of the summer ended with a rainy spell in mid-September, very beneficial for the end of the ripening cycle. In October, no rain came to disrupt our harvests.  
The cool nights, combined with the hot days, made it possible to produce wines that were rich in color but also fresh and fruity.  
Paradoxes or miracles of nature? We would rather answer, the work of men and the predominance, once again, of great terroirs.

The 2016 Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion checks in as a Merlot-heavy blend, 57.5% Merlot and 42.5% Cabernet Sauvignon. About as pure and seamless (yet sexy) as they come in the vintage, it offers awesome notes of dried flowers, sweet currants, cedarwood, forest floor, and exotic spices. With a flawless texture, medium to full body, and ultra-fine tannins, this beauty builds incrementally on the palate with terrific mid-palate depth and a stunning finish. It’s sexier and more charming compared to the more backward Haut Brion, yet I suspect it will age just as long. Reviewed by: Jeb Dunnuck, Issue date: February 2019. Drinking window: 2023 - 2063.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

(Rating: 98+). The 2016 La Mission Haut-Brion is a blend of 57.5% Merlot and 42.5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep garnet-purple in color, it is just a little muted to begin, soon unfurling to reveal slowly growing scents of crushed blackcurrants, black cherries, dark chocolate and candied violets with nuances of crushed rocks, tobacco leaf, forest floor and fragrant earth plus a hint of bergamot. Medium-bodied and exquisitely elegant, the palate offers perfectly ripe, fine-grained tannins and tons of freshness with layer upon layer of perfumed fruit and a very long, ferrous-laced finish.

The 2016 La Mission Haut-Brion was stunning from barrel, and now in bottle. It has a sublime bouquet of blackberries, briar and hints of dark chocolate and rose petals that gain intensity with aeration while maintaining ethereal delineation. It never steps on the accelerator too hard. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. There is still a veneer of new oak that will need to be assimilated over the coming years. This is a deep La Mission that caresses the mouth. Touches of graphite lingering on a finish that fans out gloriously. Is the 2016 up there with the 1955 or 1989? Nearly.
