CRITIC REVIEWS
Antonio Galloni
The 2021 La Mission Haut-Brion comes across as delicate and soft. It is a wine that is very strongly marked by the year there is no doubt about that. Floral and spice notes open first, as the 2021 shows off its restrained personality. Dark fruit, leather, cedar and tobacco develop in the glass, but this very clearly offers only modest definition, mid-palate pliancy and persistence. Even so, there are no hard edges. Overall, it's a very good wine in a year that was obviously extremely challenging.
