| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | De 2018 La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion toont gedurfde aroma's van zwarte bessen, gestoofde pruimen en braambessen met suggesties van chocolademunt, potloodlood en kruidnagel, en een vleugje verschroeide aarde; het medium tot volle palet biedt sappige zwarte vruchten, frisse zuren, rijpe afgeronde tannines en een lange kruidige afdronk. Daarom past deze Bordeaux prachtig bij rundvlees, wild, stevige kazen en barbecuegerechten omdat de tannines en zuurgraad vet en eiwitten snijden en de donkere fruittonen rijkere smaken aanvullen; kies voor gegrilde of medium-rare stukken zoals een geroosterde entrecote of langzaam gegaarde ribeye, gegrild of gerookt wild met jeneverbessen en rozemarijn, of krachtige gerijpte kazen zoals Comté of Manchego om de complexiteit van de wijn te benadrukken, en serveer hem licht gekoeld op het terras voor extra frisheid. |

The 2018 La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion is a blend of 40.8% Merlot, 51.6% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7.6% Cabernet Franc. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it comes galloping out of the glass with bold notions of blackcurrant pastilles, stewed black plums and boysenberries, with suggestions of chocolate mint, pencil lead and clove oil, plus a hint of scorched earth. The medium to full-bodied palate is jam-packed with juicy black fruits, nicely offset by lovely freshness and ripe, rounded tannins, finishing long and spicy.
Domaine Clarence Dillon pretty much nailed it across the board in 2018, from the first growth(s) in Pessac to the Saint-Émilion wines; to the more humbly priced, larger volume offerings; and even the whites, which were also tricky considering the heat. All the wines are ripe and seductive, true to what 2018 wanted to give as a vintage, and yet they possess bags of bright fruit, energy and freshness. “The first key to success this vintage was to start the first mildew treatment in the vineyards a little bit earlier than usual,” Deputy Managing Director Jean-Philippe Delmas of Domaine Clarence Dillon informed me. “If you did that, you were protected. If you didn’t, you had to constantly run after the disease. The second challenge was the date of the harvest—the date was finally quite late. The best solution was to wait to get ripeness but to pick before there was heaviness or the wines got too fat.”
I asked Delmas which he loved more this year, Cabernet or Merlot? “I loved everything,” he promptly replied. “And on the Right Bank, the Cabernet Franc was wonderful this year, which isn’t always the case. I would say Right Bank and Left Bank are the same for quality.”
Bravo team!

Wine Spectator
Vivid, with sleek cassis and crushed plum flavors stretching out nicely as this airs in the glass, carried by a racy, tarry edge and backed by ample sweet spice and tobacco notes. The late echo of roasted apple wood is pleasant and the finish has an electric feel. Best from 2022 through 2035. 3,600 cases made. — JM

From: The Future’s Definitely Not What It Was: Bordeaux 2018 (Mar 2021)
The 2018 La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion has really blossomed since I tasted it in barrel. The bouquet is very pure and perfumed, featuring shimmering red berry fruit, briar, undergrowth and a touch of peppermint dallying in the background. The palate is very well balanced with smooth tannins, very nicely pitched acidity and a subtle marine note toward the finish. This is just plain delicious.
