2001 Château La Mission Haut-Brion

Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Sunday, November 4, 2012 - Starting to really come around. Disagreed with friend and listened to him...no decant initially. Tasted and then decanted for 2 hrs and wow! 2 hours after that even better. By that time dinner party was over. I will give my 3 other bottles a minimum of 2 years. Integrated tannins (esp after airtime), sweet tobacco, cassis, and graphite. Complex. Interestingly, I opened 2 identical bottles from the same purchase and storage conditions and everyone noted one was quite a bit more tannic (hence the different scores).
