The Story

La Mission Haut Brion is situated in Bordeaux' southern suburb, Talence. From 1919 and until 1983, it was Woltner family, who had owned this property.

Vuosikerta 1953

Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1953 suffered the same fate. The nose was wonderful, all fruit, mintiness (menthol), perfume, elegance. The palate powerful, in perfect balance.
