1982 Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion (Very Small Mark Top Right Label)

"Château La Mission Haut-Brion is still deep ruby-hued, with no signs of bricking, and has this incredible sense of richness and intensity paired with off-the-charts complexity and elegance. Possessing a quintessential Pessac nose of blackcurrants, smoked earth, freshly sharpened cedar pencils, and sweet tobacco, this beauty hits the palate with a full-bodied ethereal style offering resolved tannins, a beautifully concentrated mouthfeel, a stacked mid-palate, and a distinct sense of salinity on the finish. If I had to pick a last bottle/desert island wine, this might be it." 100/100 - Jeb Dunnuck
