CHATEAU LA MISSION HAUT-BRION 1990 |

Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1990 Talence (Pessac-Léognan), Grand Cru ClasséLevel into the neck, slightly scuffed label, slightly corroded capsule, sign of seepageLast 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 WA 991 bt (cn)Estimates are per lot
