Note di degustazione
The 2016 La Mission Haut-Brion showed better here at Bordeaux Index's tasting than a couple of weeks later at the Southwold tasting. It has a more extrovert bouquet compared to the Haut-Brion: a mixture of red and black fruit, sage and black truffle, a light marine influence that emerges with time. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly grainy tannins. There is slightly more backbone and grip than the First Growth, wonderful sapidity on the harmonious finish that lingers in the mouth. Brilliant. Tasted at the 10-Year-On tasting at Bordeaux Index.

Love the balance and elegance, this is a superb La Mission, with length, fine but plentiful tannins, with baking spices, leather, rose bud, white truffle, lace-like tannins. Has lift and grace but also a ton of depth, heading into its drinking window and ready to wow anyone lucky enough to own it. 100% new French oak for ageing.
Tasted blind. Lightly peachy nose. A green streak and that keeps it all together. Quite rich. Vibrant though. (JR)
