Product Highlights

The wine is a beautiful deep purple-red. The nose is intense, with hints of raspberry and blackberry. What's striking as it swirls in the glass is its ripe fruitiness. The vanilla and delicately spicy, woody notes marry perfectly without dominating. The first expression is round, full and ample, leading into a dense and flavorful mid-palate. Blackfruit and licorice notes dominate the taste, followed by a juicy and velvety tannic structure.

Since the start of the barrel aging process, this incredibly charming wine has gone from strength to strength and immediately reminds us of the outstanding 2000 vintage, but with more density. A 2000+!

Expert Reviews

A tight and structured La Mission that takes you deep into the glass with super intensity and power. The tannins are omnipresent and envelop the palate. It’s full-bodied yet agile and complete. Iodine, sweet-tobacco and blackberry character. It seems never to finish. Another WOW wine that reminds me of some of the great classics of this estate, such as the 1955.

The 2019 Château La Mission Haut-Brion is Merlot-dominated, checking in as 53% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Cabernet Franc. It's a more opulent wine compared to Haut-Brion, and the Merlot is front and center here, with ripe, sexy black cherry and redcurrant fruits as well as licorice, scorched earth, cedar pencil, and graphite aromas and flavors. Rich, exuberant, and straight up sexy on the palate, it's full-bodied, has a deep, layered mid-palate, building tannins, and a heavenly finish. Just a prodigious, powerful, off-the-charts expression of this terroir, it actually reminds me slightly of the 2005 (or 1998?) with its mix of sexiness and opulence. This is one of the few 2019s that will make your eyes roll back in your head. It will need 10-15 years of cellaring, but it’s a sensational wine on every level and will have 40+ years of prime drinking. Best after 2032.
