The 2006 vintage of Mission Haut Brion is a stunning representation of Pessac-Léognan, hailing from the prestigious Château la Mission-Haut-Brion in Bordeaux, France. This 1500ml bottle exudes a deep, ruby red hue with hints of garnet, a testament to its age. On the nose, aromas of blackcurrant, dark plum, and subtle notes of tobacco and cedarwood entice the senses. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with velvety tannins and a well-balanced acidity. Flavors of blackberry, cherry, and a touch of black pepper linger on the finish, leaving a satisfying and long-lasting impression. This wine is a true masterpiece, showcasing the best of Pessac-Léognan and the skill of its producers. It is ready to be enjoyed now, but has the potential to age gracefully for many years to come.

James Suckling - Wine Spectator

This is so perfumed and pretty. Classy and elegant on the nose, with currant, light vanilla and a hint of lilac. Full-bodied, with ultrafine tannins and a long, long finish. All in finesse. Very impressive for the vintage; could be the wine of the vintage.

Roger Voss - Wine Enthusiast

Wonderful sweet fruit, velvet in texture, with concentrated ripe fruits and red berries. This is a wine that rolls sumptuously around the mouth, the tannins certainly dense but full of the same sweetness as the fruit. The final flavor is perfumed and fresh. Deceptively attractive, it will profit from many years' aging.

Almost jammy, with vanilla bean and coffee undertones. Full-bodied and very powerful, with big, juicy tannins and a long finish. Very big and generous for the vintage, showing exceptional quality. Best after 2015.

94—96 Barrel sample. A smooth rich wine, with delicious, opulent soft fruit. Spice and tobacco along with acidity and great freshness. It is dense and concentrated, but like velvet.

Jancis Robinson

Dark and mysterious-looking. Aromatic and very sweet on the front palate with some spice and minerals. Very distinctive and ambitious. Super lively. Lots tucked in there. Very impressive. Drink 2015-2030 18/20

Jacques Dupont - Le Point

Fruits rouges, nez très charmeur et très pur, bouche ronde, élégante, tanins fermes, structure solide, un fruit très enjôleur, un vin avec beaucoup de charme reposant sur une bonne texture. 18/20
