Mission Haut Brion other_regions_italy as it needs at least

as it needs at least several years in bottle to be at its very best

but I still find it a bit light

I would not expect it to be a poor wine either

this is at its peak

Stays sweet

Mission Haut Brion other_regions_italy as it needs at leastThe knockout nose, with all its smoke, hot stone, campfire embers, burnt earth, tobacco, cigar wrapper and roasted, ripe red fruits is a beauty. Full bodied, with good concentration, the tannins are a bit rustic, so the wine lacks the polish of the better vintages, but with decanting, the wine fills out, offering a classic expression of its charms. You can drink now with 1 2 hours of air, else, wait another 5 years.
