The 2020 La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc delivers sophisticated complexity from the first sip. Granny Smith apple and Conference pear weave through wet limestone minerality, while subtle lemongrass adds vivacious spice toward the finish. The palate shows admirable weight with precise acidic structure that lifts the wine beautifully. This has remarkable depth and persistence, suggesting a brilliant future ahead.
