2021 Château La Mission Haut-Brion Magnum

The 2021 Château La Mission Haut-Brion Magnum is a superb expression of one of Bordeaux’s most revered estates, offered here in the impressive magnum format for added ageing potential and presence at the table. Sourced from a historic First Growth–level property in Graves, it combines depth, finesse, and unmistakable pedigree.

Tasting Notes
With its deep ruby colour, the wine opens with refined aromas of dark cherry, cassis, blackberry, cedar, graphite, and subtle smoky notes. On the palate, it is poised and layered, showing concentrated black fruit, fine-grained tannins, fresh acidity, and the estate’s signature mineral-savoury complexity. The 2021 vintage is known for its precision and balance rather than sheer power, and this wine reflects that beautifully. It should evolve gracefully over many years, gaining even more nuance, complexity, and texture with cellaring.

Production
La Mission Haut-Brion is situated in the Pessac-Léognan appellation of Graves, where deep gravel soils and a temperate maritime climate help produce wines of remarkable elegance and structure. The grapes are typically harvested by hand and vinified with meticulous care to preserve purity and expression, followed by ageing in oak barrels to build depth and complexity.

Food & Serving
This magnum is an excellent match for roast lamb, beef tenderloin, duck breast, game birds, truffle dishes, and mature hard cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C and consider decanting for 1–2 hours before drinking, especially if enjoying it young.
