Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1998

This is really classic in style with incredible depth and power. Muscular and amazing, it is full-bodied yet tight and agile. So complex. Shows iodine, oyster, stone and mint aromas and flavors. It's rich and flavorful and at the same time fresh and racy. A modern classic. Drink or hold. Decant this one or two hours in advance.

Delmas said he made the 1998 La Mission wine with his father, Jean, who was a legend for three decades in Bordeaux. "We made two truly great wines together, 1998 and 2000," said Jean Philippe. "I think 1998 is our best ever together." 99 POINTS // James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, January 2016
