Ranking notes: Robert Parker 100/100, James Suckling 98/100, Jancis Robinson 18.5/20

"A candidate for the wine of the vintage, the 2009 La Mission-Haut-Brion stood out as one of the most exceptional young wines I had ever tasted from barrel, and its greatness has been confirmed in the bottle. A remarkable effort from the Dillon family, this is another large-scaled La Mission that tips the scales at 15% alcohol.(...) The wine’s remarkable concentration offers up an unctuous/viscous texture, a skyscraper-like mouthfeel, sweet, sumptuous, nearly over-the-top flavors and massive density. Perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime La Mission-Haut-Brion, the 2009 will take its place alongside the many great wines made here since the early 1920s. The good news is that there are nearly 6,000 cases of the 2009. It should last for 50-75+ years. Given the wine’s unctuosity and sweetness of the tannin, I would have no problem drinking it in about 5-6 years. The final blend was 47% Merlot, 47% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Cabernet Franc." Robert M. Parker, Jr.

The producer

Château La Mission Haut-Brion

Château La Mission Haut-Brion's vineyard straddles the commune of Talence and Pessac and is located only a few miles southwest of Bordeaux's city center. It belongs to the Pessac-Léognan appellation, to the north of the Graves wine-growing region. The property is situated just opposite that of Château Haut-Brion and shares the same gravelly and elevated terrain ideal for cultivating vines, bounded by the Le Peugue and Le Serpent streams, already referred to under the name Haut-Brion on ancient maps and deeds. The nature of the gravel at Château La Mission Haut-Brion, consisting of small stones of various types of quartz, is a key element contributing to the particularly valuable wine-growing potential of the soil. The sub-soil consists of a mixture of clay and sand. The vineyard covers an area of 29 hectares (about 72 acres). 25.5 hectares are planted with red grape varieties (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc) and just over 3.5 hectares are devoted to Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc.
