About Château La Mission Haut-Brion 2005
Bottle (75cl)

The 2005 vintage is reputed to have been exemplary in the Bordeaux region. The 2005 vintage of Château La Mission Haut Brion (Cru Classé de Graves) represents perfection!

Made up of a blend of 3 grape varieties, Château La Mission Haut Brion uses mainly Merlot (69%), supplemented by 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc.

It has a magnificent dark garnet colour with a burgundy tint.
The Château La Mission Haut Brion 2005 demonstrates great precision. It has superb aromas of ripe red fruit, coated with licorice and earth, as well as a more toasted note.
The 2005 Château La Mission Haut Brion is full and silky in the mouth. Black fruits such as blackberries appear on the palate, supported by powerful and precise tannins caressing the palate until an amazing finish of length and complexity.

In 2005, Château la Mission Haut Brion produced one of the wonders of Pessac Léognan, if not a marvel of the whole vintage!
