The La Chapelle de La Mission - 2nd vin du Château la Mission-Haut-Brion is, as the name indicates, the second wine from this famous house from Pessac Léognan. The La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion 2023 is composed of 48.3% Merlot, 39.4% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12.3% Cabernet Franc.

The harvest of red grapes started on September 6, under good weather conditions, although it was very hot. The grapes were ripe and concentrated for all varieties, with an abundance of phenolic compounds rarely seen before and very good sugar content. The juices were fresh and fruity. The bountiful harvest extended over 20 days for all plots and under summer weather conditions. 21.2% in new wooden barrels.

The color of this wine is a strong, dark purple. The first nose has intensity, but after rolling it reveals notes of delicate woody ripe fruit. A beautiful balance. In the mouth the first taste is fresh, broad and tasty. The wine has a relatively long finish and offers a sensational pleasure for a second wine. A truly beautiful Chapelle.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving Deze 2023 La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion toont een geconcentreerd profiel van rijpe, donkerrood en paars fruit met subtiel hout, frisse zuren, stevige maar elegante tannines en een lange, smaakvolle afdronk. Daardoor sluit hij uitstekend aan bij rundvlees, lam, wild, charcuterie en rijpere kazen: de tannines en frisse sapheid snijden door vet en rijkdom heen terwijl het rijpe fruit de hartige, kruidige smaken complimenteert. Kies voor gegrild of houtgeroosterd vlees, langzaam gegaard rundvlees of lam met een kruidenkorst, en bij wild maak je extra indruk met een lichtzure bessensaus; bij charcuterie en kazen werkt de wijn prachtig naast gerijpte, iets zoute of notige exemplaren.
