About this Item

2014 Pessac-Léognan
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

La Chapelle de La Mission Haut-Brion is the second wine of the famous Bordeaux winery Château La Mission Haut-Brion. La Mission Haut-Brion is a prestigious estate located in the Pessac-Léognan appellation of Bordeaux, known for producing some of the finest red wines in the world. La Chapelle de La Mission Haut-Brion is made from younger vines and grapes that do not meet the strict selection criteria for the estate's main wine. However, it is still made with the same care and attention to detail as the first wine, and is considered to be a high-quality wine in its own right.

Critics Ratings

'This is a finely perfumed wine with its dark tannins and juicy black-currant fruit. It has structure and a dense texture although this is filled with the bright acidity that gives the wine a lift. This will age well, so drink from 2021.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 92/100 (Apr 2017)

'Dense and muscular in feel, with a loamy edge complementing the core of steeped plum, black currant and fig compote notes. Lots of tobacco and roasted cedar details fill in on the energetic finish. Best from 2019 through 2026.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 91/100 (Mar 2017)
