98-100 THE WINEADVOCATE: "The 2018 La Mission Haut-Brion is composed of 53.5% Merlot, 42.9% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3.6% Cabernet Franc, harvested September 10 to October 2. Deep purple-black in color, it slowly unfurls to reveal a beguiling nose of earth and soft-spoken fruit, opening with wild blueberries, wet slate, pencil lead and fresh black cherries giving way to a serious core of blackcurrant cordial, baked plums and wild sage, and then ...

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. Under Woltner's reign, La Mission Haut Brion experienced one of its greatest period with string of fine vintages and was considered then as fully on the level with First Growths and sometimes even better than these. In 1983, owners of Haut Brion purchased La Mission Haut Brion and today its Jean...

Report and recommendations for the 2018 Bordeaux vintage

by Andrew Caillard MW

2018 is an exceptional year. Bordeaux whites and Sauternes are very good, but from an Australian perspective, the excitement is all in the red wines. All sub-regions produced examples of very good wines, but some performed better than others. Generally, the largest estates have made exemplary wines illustrating that the human factor and wealth can have a major...

Viiniarvio

Viiniä ei ole maistettu vielä riittävän monta kertaa jotta siitä voitaisiin muodostaa sanallinen arvio

Ruby. Dense, blackberries, anise, spices, faint minerals, some scented high notes. Big and elegant at the same time. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, dark fruits, spices, liquorice, layered and intense, needs serious air to show fully, and the richness of the Merlot this vintage is difficult to put right. 2003 was super jammy while young, now they’re not, but most lacks some acidity. This has the acidity, but also higher alcohol and will that warmth show through more with age? This may be one of those truly great La Missions, but it is also borderline too sweet and alcoholic. I don’t really think it resembles 2003, I just remember that jaminess and very sweet fruit and how that baby fat has left. If this can handle it’s alcohol with age, it will be stunning. My score is betting on that it will. 99

La Mission Haut Brion - different story here compared to brother property, Haut Brion. More open and handling out the good things. Dense and tight, but also incredibly elegant and refined. Well-packed with concentrated blackcurrants and fat tannin. Creamy and with great complexity and a big structure. Mega long finish. 98-99p (98-99p).

-
  • 99p

A tight and linear red with fantastic oyster-shell, iodine and crushed-stone character, complementing the currants and blackberries. Extremely long and fresh.
Barrel Sample: 97-98

  • 98p

Deep crimson. Intense dark cherry, blackberry fruits, shells wood varnish notes. Plentiful chocolatey tannins, some mocha/ espresso notes. Vigorous slightly leafy finish with some roasted chestnut notes.

-
  • 96p

Complex aromas of blackberries, iodine, oyster shell and wet earth. Ever so perfumed. Full-bodied, yet reserved and tight with very silky tannins that are energized and minerally.

-
  • 98p

Dark purple red colour with violet hue and black core. Excellent nose with distinct typicity, graphite, hints of roasting aroma, rather closed character, lush fruit in the background. On the palate sweet tannins, ripe fruit, exuberant character with excellent length.

Sisäpiiritietoa

97-99 THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Take all the power La Mission Haut Brion is capable of harnessing, add the elegance, freshness, purity and layers of complexity that come at you in waves and you have an idea of what to expect in your glass. There is purity of the fruit with a natural smoke, tobacco leaf and burning ember profile in every sip. And the finish, it kept going long after the wine left my glass. Made from 57.5% Merlot and 42.5% and reaching 14.4% alcohol with a pH of 3.76, the harvest took place September 19-October 14. The Grand Vin represents 53% of the harvest."

97-99 JEB DUNNUCK: "The 2018 La Mission Haut-Brion checks in as 53.5% Merlot, 42.9% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Cabernet Franc that, like the La Chappelle de la Mission Haut-Brion, was harvested between September 10 and October 2. Straight up awesome notes of black raspberries, smoked earth, melted licorice, and tobacco all emerge from this deeply colored 2018, and it develops a beautiful violet and floral quality with time in the glass. Rich, full-bodied, and concentrated on the palate, with subtle background oak and sweet tannins, it´s one sexy yet also seamless 2018 that does everything right."
