Description

The La Chapelle de La Mission - 2nd vin du Château la Mission-Haut-Brion is, as the name suggests, the second wine of this famous house from Pessac Léognan. The La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion 2022 is composed of 55.9% Merlot, 35.4% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8.7% Cabernet Franc,

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