Description
Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1985
Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Grand Cru Classé
u. 5bn, 1vts, slightly scuffed and slightly nicked capsules
This 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
