CHATEAU LA MISSION HAUT-BRION 1985 |

Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1985 Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Grand Cru Classéu.5bn, 3vts 3ts, slightly scuffed, slightly nicked capsules, 3 slightly corroded capsules, excellent color and clarityThis vintage marked the real imprint of the new Dillon ownership, following the family's acquisition of the property in 1983. A wonderful, rich, exciting nose, plummy and fresh. Intoxicating really. So luscious on the palate and still so young. Oozing beautiful fruit and with a heavenly tobacco finish. Perfectly composed and poised - exemplary. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 9211 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
