The nose can be expressive and layered, with notes of dark cherry, plum, cedar, tobacco, graphite and gentle earthy spice, all carried by the polished, understated elegance that defines La Mission Haut-Brion.\n\nOn the palate, expect a medium to full-bodied wine with fine-grained tannins, balanced acidity and a harmonious, lingering finish.
