  (95-97 vvPunkte) 55% Semillion, 45% Sauvignon Blanc. Grüngold und super expressiv in der Nase, viel Würze, Passionsfrucht und Salzzitrone, steinige Note. Der Gaumen ist frisch und zeigt eine gute Konzentration, süsse Frucht, knackige Säure, die Struktur ist da, der Wein tänzelt über die Zunge, das hat Spannung, Tiefgang und eine grosse, aromatische Länge. Ein ausgezeichneter Weisswein, der das Potenzial hat, zu reifen. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Château La Mission Haut-Brion) vvWine.ch

  It takes no time at all to be reeled in here, starting with the nose. Crushed rocks, lemon verbena, flowers, pears, green apples, pears and tangerine rind pack the perfume. As good as the nose is, the palate is equal to the task of keeping you focused with its 60 second plus blast of sweet, juicy, rich, creamy, fresh, vibrant, energetic waves of fruits. This is clearly in contention for one of the best vintages of La Mission Haut Brion Blanc ever produced! Made from a blend of 55% Sauvignon Blanc, 45% Semillon, picking took place September 3, finishing September 10. 14.1% ABV. Drink from 2023-2060. 98-98

  En-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): Perfumed, floral top notes with slightly more passion fruit than gooseberry, struck match, a little orchard fruit. New oak. Slightly sour on the palate, talc textured grip, medium minus intensity flavours persist long with a little herbaceous underpin. Time should help.
