2011 La Chapelle de la Mission Haut Brion, Pesac Leognan

La Chapelle de la Mission Haut Brion, Pesac Leognan
Again, Merlot dominates this second wine with 68% of the blend, and this imparts the notes of black berry and black cherry which dominate the nose. The palate shows spicy red fruit, with a fair density and length, and abundant tannins which should ensure good ageing potential.

Floral summer fruits, clarity and purity. Quite vigourous, it needs time to soften.

La Chapelle de la Mission Haut Brion, Pesac Leognan
The second wine of La Mission Haut Brion is also a great success, revealing much of the character of its bigger brother, although not the weight or richness. The open-knit, plush, opulent, fresh, lively 2011 La Chapelle de la Mission is ideal for drinking in its first 10-15 years of life.
I can-t say enough good things about the job Jean-Philippe Delmas has done after taking over for his well-known father at La Mission-Haut-Brion and Haut-Brion. As long-time readers know, I am an addict for both of these wines.

La Chapelle de la Mission Haut Brion, Pesac Leognan
Tight, with hints of mesquite and tar, showing good racy tobacco leaf and cassis notes.
