Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1966 (2 BT)

 Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1966 

Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Grand Cru Classé 

u. 1ts, 1t/hs, heavily bin-soiled, damp-stained, nicked, and slightly torn labels, scuffed and slightly corroded capsules, short capsules reveals vintage branded corks

On its 50th birthday, this has a glorious nose, almost ethereal and very persistent. Aniseed, cigars and violets on the palate, with all the complexity and layers one expects from this great cru. A beauty of great impact. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
