Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1989 (12 BT)

Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1989  

Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Grand Cru Classé 

Levels into the neck

Thicker, darker colour than the '90, but more mature. Wonderfully dense, intense, concentrated bouquet of vanilla, violets and cigars. Blackberry compote. Totally rich and mouth coating. So thick and lush. Touch of Seville oranges and cloves. Pure exotica. I think even more exciting than the sleek, beautiful '90. Phenomenal. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
