Château La Mission Haut-Brion 2000 Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Grand Cru ClasséLevels into the neck, slightly cellar soiled labels and capsules, slightly scuffed capsules, 2 slightly corroded capsules, cellar soiled original wooden case58% Merlot, 31% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc. In 2013, this is immensely scented, just so fresh and bouncy. Full of blueberries, fleshy and creamy on the palate, with tannin, fruit and acidity in big doses à la 2000. Luscious, sweet and ripe and set for the long haul. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 10012 bts (owc)Estimates are per lot
