LA MISSION HAUT-BRION
DIRECT FROM THE CHATEAU CELLAR
Château La Mission-Haut-Brion--Vintage 2000
Pessac-Léognan, cru classé
"While still tight from bottling, its inky purple color is accompanied by extravagantly sweet aromas of blackberries, blueberries, toast, scorched earth, coffee, asphalt, graphite, and smoke. Super-intense and unctuously-textured, with a sumptuous mid-palate and finish, this is an explosively rich, layered effort that possesses everything I could ever want from a terroir that has given me as much hedonistic and intellectual pleasure as any other wine in the world. It is an amazing achievement for administrator Jean-Bernard Delmas, his son, Jean-Phillipe, and the entire winemaking team. The phenomenal aftertaste goes on for over a minute. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2045." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #146 (Apr 2003)
