Description
Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1961
Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Grand Cru Classé
u. 1bn, 4vts, 6ts, 3t/hs, 2hs, 1h/ms, 2ms, slightly bin-soiled labels, slightly corroded capsules, packed in a 24-half bottle original wooden case
This is a true cigar-box nose - the acme of this individual character of La Mission in particular, and Pessac-Léognan in general. Extraordinary rich, melting, mouth-enveloping, with cloves and all the damp undergrowth of a Domaine de la Romanée-Conti wine - plus Cohibas! A very great experience and a stupendous wine.
