Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1990 (2 BT)

Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1990 

Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Grand Cru Classé 

u. 2bn, 1 slightly scuffed label, slightly scuffed capsules

Last tasted from magnum in 2013. Here you get all the cigary brilliance, together with brambly black fruit, complexity and wonderful structure. The balance between fruit and tannin is superb. A very successful wine, with enveloping cedary sweetness at the end. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
