Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1961 (5 BT)

Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1961

Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Grand Cru Classé u.1ts, 2hs, 1t/hs, 1h/ms, labels bin-soiled and glue-stripped, slightly corroded capsules, 1 slightly sunken cork

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.
