The 2022 La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc shows remarkable complexity and depth. Yellow plum, jasmine and beeswax emerge on the nose, with hints of lemon curd adding richness. The palate delivers impressive weight and texture, more substantial than its famous neighbor across the road. Lemongrass notes build toward a slightly viscous finish that speaks to the wine's inherent quality and aging potential.
