La Chapelle de la Mission Haut Brion, Pessac Léognan, 2014
This year's cuvee is a blend of 45% Merlot, 31% Cabernet Franc and 24% Cabernet Sauvignon. Commercially this wine hasn't been successful for several vintages, but the quality has always been there. As with all things Bordeaux, price is key! There are strong Cabernet notes of bell pepper, cassis, cigar smoke, very classic and refined. The palate has good fluidity, ripe crème de cassis fruit and sandalwood notes. This is detailed and defined with a nice touch of gravelly minerality on the finish.
critic reviews
The 2014 La Chapelle de la Mission offers light brambly red berry fruit on the nose mixed with cedar and bay leaf notes. The palate is well balanced with a fine line of acidity, plenty of pretty red fruit, light on its toes and yet delivering a satisfying and persistent finish that draws you back for the next sip. This has clearly improved since I tasted it just after bottling. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
