Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion 2012

The 2012 Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion has overtones such as licorice typical of very ripe grapes, but also fresh nuances reminiscent of menthol. Fruitiness and a touch of oak round out the wine's aromatic complexity. The rich tannin adds a silky texture and the taste profile is altogether charming, with tremendous balance.

97 Points - Jeb Dunnuck

Continuing to show brilliantly, the 2012 La Mission Haut-Brion is a quintessential Graves, boasting a deep purple color as well as heavenly aromatics of blackcurrants, tobacco, scorched earth, graphite, and licorice. It’s a big, full-bodied beauty yet has a weightless, elegant style, building tannins, and a great finish. It needs a solid hour in a decanter if drinking today and promises to evolve beautifully for another 3-4 decades.
