The 2019 Le Mission Haut Brion is a blend of 53% Merlot, 39.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7.5% Cabernet Franc. This Mission Haut Brion belongs to one of the most beautiful vintages ever and is a worthy successor to the 1955 and 2018 vintages and has a scored from Suckling and Parker of 99/100 points.

The wine has incredible precision with a medium to full-bodied taste with supple and soft tannins and great acidity. It is a wine of incredible focus and delineation. The wine is a deep garnet purple in color and unfolds in the glass with notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, dark chocolate, violet, tobacco leaf, forest floor and a hint of bergamot.

Neal Martin of the Wine Advocate (Parker) writes about the 2019: "A wine of impeccable breeding, both decadently flamboyant and provocatively graceful, this is already a prodigious wine of indisputable beauty.s"
