The 2017 La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc is rich and powerful, displaying remarkable depth from the first pour. Sémillon's waxy texture provides the backbone, while citrus and mineral notes add complexity and lift. There's real substance here, with layers that unfold gracefully in the glass. The finish shows tremendous intensity and length, marking this as one of the vintage's standouts.
