97 JS / 96 VM / 17+ JR This is really perfumed with tar, licorice, blackberries and stone. Some gunmetal. This has ultra fine tannins with a tightly wound mouth feel that gives a long, precise finish. The flavors are...

97 WA / 97 VM / 97 WCI This is an upper-ninety point La Conseillante that is very much in the style of the 1990. In comparing the two vintages, the 1989 has slightly more noticeable tannin and structure, but it is a...
98 JS / 97 DE / 97 VM / 96 RP / 96 WS / 96 JD Aromas of blueberry, minerals, flowers, and hints of brewed coffee. Sweet tobacco. Full bodied, with an amazing palate of intense dark fruits that verge on kir, but then a racy...

100 RP / 100 VM / 98 AG / 19 JR / 96 JA Even allowing for the greatness of Haut-Brion and Mouton-Rothschild, the 1955 La Mission is the "wine of the vintage." It possesses a sweet, cedary, clove, smoke, and...
100 RP / 100 AG / 98 VM / 96 WS / 18.5 JR One of the greatest 1961s, La Mission-Haut-Brion has been fabulous to drink for the last 5-10 years. Where well-stored, this wine will continue to drink well for 10-20 years. It is...
97 RP / 18 JR This is undisputably the wine of the vintage, a year that was clearly over-exposed and over-rated, largely because it was better than the four vintages that preceded it. However, it was not terribly exciting...
90 WA The 1981 exhibits a more youthful purple hue to its dark plum color than any vintage back to 1970. Somewhat narrowly constructed for a La Mission-Haut-Brion, it reveals plenty of incense, blueberry, black...
100 WA / 99 RP / 99 DE / 97 JS / 19 JR One of the great wines of the vintage, and the last produced under the ownership of the Woltner family, the 1982 La Mission Haut-Brion remains remarkably youthful, exhibiting a...
100 RP / 100 VM / 96 WS / 18.5 JR I am certainly not going to argue with anyone who believes La Mission-Haut-Brion\'s 1989 is every bit as profound as the 1989 Haut-Brion. It is a spectacular wine, and as it ages in the...
99 WA / 97 VM / 18.5 JR Reminiscing over the 1989 and 1990 vintages, which I have followed from birth, there always seemed to be a dramatic difference in quality. Not that the 1990 was not a top wine, but in its infancy, I...
100 RP / 98 DE / 97 VM One of the wines of the vintage, the 2000 has barely budged in its evolution since it was bottled and released in 2002. After ten years in bottle, it still reveals a dense opaque purple color along...
100 RP /100 VM / 100 WI / 100 JD / 99 JS The 2005 La Mission Haut-Brion is pure perfection. It has an absolutely extraordinary nose of sweet blackberries, cassis and spring flowers with some underlying minerality, a...
97 DE / 96 WE / 95 RP / 95 WA / 95 WS / 94+ VM / 19 JR Colour still tight and inky at 10 years old. Smooth, silky, very expressive; this is so powerful it almost lulls you into a false sense of security with the tannin...
100 WA / 100 RP / 100 JD / 98 JS / 97+ VM / 97 DE / 97 WE / 96 WS / 18.5 JR The deep garnet colored 2009 La Mission Haut-Brion absolutely sings of warm red and black currants, chocolate-covered cherries, liquid licorice,...
100 JS / 100 FS / 98 WCI / 98+ RP / 98 VM / 97 WE / 97 WS / 18+ JR This is crazy. The nose is so unique with the iodine, stones and currant aromas with wet earth and mushroom. Aromas like this don't usually come out until...
98 JA / 96 VM / 96 JS / 95+ AG / 95 JD / 95 WE / 18.5 JR This is a briliant vintage for both wines of the Haut-Brion stable at the time, I remember them standing out during En Primeur, and wow this is...

99-100 JS / 98-100 WI / 97-99 JD / 98 DE / 96-98 VM / 97 JA / 95-97 WA A classical Lafite that reminds me of something like the 1986, with its blackcurrant and tobacco character with cedar and hazelnut, but it's so today...
