Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion Pessac-Leognan 2006

Its 2006 has an incredible depth and focus, with subtle creamy new oak and intoxicating blackberry and plum fruit dancing across the palate with some delicacy. The incredibly long finish is as good as any outside of Ch. Latour.

This displays its trademark silky, feminine elegance but in 2006 has added structure and multi-layered richness. Exquisite.
